What I'm looking for

I'm looking to translate biomedical research, human-rights advocacy, and health equity analysis into evidence-based policy that advances equitable healthcare across global contexts.

I'm building a career at the intersection of biological sciences, reproductive health research, and equitable health policy. My work turns complex scientific and legal evidence into accessible analysis and advocacy.

At the Perrin Institute for Human-Centered AI, I produced weekly published analyses of global healthcare legislation and health equity, using clear storytelling to support public health policy conversations.

With the Menstrual Equity Initiative and as an independent researcher through Indigo's Next Nobel Scholar, I co-authored a 100-page clinical guide and reviewed links between microplastics, endocrine disruption, fertility, and reproductive disorders.

Through Tilting Futures and SWEAT, I researched international legal frameworks, drafted briefs supporting decriminalization efforts, and developed advocacy and health-education outreach for marginalized women. I've also led research on cyberbullying and emotional health data, bringing attention to cultural gaps in automated distress detection.
