What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a role in public health, epidemiology, health data science, or a related field where I can contribute my research, data analysis, and communication skills.

At Yale University & Airlangga University, I contributed to research on mobile health technology, digital health interventions, and behavioural health promotion. I co-designed interview guides and protocols and conducted patient interviews for studies on VR and chatbot acceptance and ART therapy adherence.

I also drafted research protocols and ethics applications, supported preliminary analysis, and coordinated project timelines across local and international teams. I co-authored manuscripts in preparation for submission to peer-reviewed journals.

As a Public Health Intern at East Java Provincial Health Office, I processed and analysed non-communicable disease surveillance data from districts and municipalities using SPSS, Epi Info, and Health Mapper. I also supported quality assurance for mental health reports.

I’m an MSc Health Data Science candidate at the University of Manchester, with a background in public health, epidemiology, and biostatistics. My work includes structured literature searches, systematic review methods, and communicating evidence for academic, clinical, and public audiences; I hold a Good Clinical Practice certification.
