What I'm looking for

I seek flexible, remote roles that leverage my nursing, clinical research, and market-research skills, offering collaborative teams, clear impact, and opportunities to translate clinical data into actionable insights.

I am a registered nurse with extensive clinical and public-health surveillance experience who transitioned into virtual research and medical record review. I have a strong background in influenza surveillance, clinical data collection, and patient-facing nursing roles, complemented by remote market and life-science research work.

Since 2018 I have contributed as a virtual research assistant and market research analyst for life-science organizations, producing reports, presentations, infographics and data-driven recommendations. I have also worked as a medical reviewer and summarizer for legal and insurance clients, handling large volumes of records with accuracy and adherence to technical specifications.

I bring disciplined data collection, excellent communication, and a commitment to quality and standard operating procedures. I am comfortable with flexible schedules, virtual collaboration, and translating clinical evidence into clear, actionable insights for stakeholders.
