What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a healthcare analytics role where I can use SQL/SAS, EHR data, and HL7/FHIR interoperability to improve data quality, build dashboards, and support smarter clinical and operational decisions.

I’m a Sr Health informatics Analyst with over 6 years of experience leveraging healthcare data to improve clinical outcomes and operational efficiency. I specialize in EHR systems, data analytics, and interoperability standards, including HL7 and FHIR, to help teams make faster, better decisions.

I’ve supported health informatics projects by building dashboards and data solutions that reduced reporting time by 30% while strengthening decision-making for clinical teams. I’m also hands-on with data quality and compliance—improving accuracy, flagging incomplete information, and ensuring regulatory readiness.

My toolkit spans SQL Server and SQL optimization (including stored procedures and database triggers), SAS for reporting and analysis, and data governance concepts. Across roles—from healthcare data analytics and a public health intern project to analytics work in banking—I bring strong stakeholder communication and a continuous-improvement mindset.
