What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to apply my expertise in epidemiology, AI systems, and program management to drive impactful public health interventions for forward-thinking organizations.

At Global Health Innovations & Policy Institute, I lead the integration of AI, data management, and epidemiological surveillance. I helped deploy an automated early-warning system for infectious disease outbreaks.

I designed automated passive-assignment logic and data pipelines that reduced data ingestion latency by 40%. I also drafted policy briefs and compliance frameworks adopted by regional health authorities.

Previously, at Center for Disease Surveillance & Policy, I managed epidemiological databases and conducted statistical analyses for health policy reporting. I also automated routine reporting and maintained healthcare privacy compliance across data systems and research.
