What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can design and implement maternal and child nutrition programs, influence policy, lead community engagement, and use data to improve population health.

I am a motivated and compassionate Public Health Nutritionist with proven experience designing and implementing community-based nutrition interventions, nutritional counseling, and program monitoring aligned with national initiatives like POSHAN Abhiyaan and NUHM. I have worked with government bodies, NGOs, and private health firms to advance maternal and child nutrition, reduce food insecurity, and strengthen community capacity.

My background includes an MPH and a certificate in Public Health Nutrition, hands-on roles in primary health centres and urban health missions, and contributions to policy implementation, data collection, and program evaluation. I bring strong skills in nutrition assessment, epidemiology, stakeholder coordination, and advocacy to drive equitable, sustainable dietary practices at the population level.
