What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role in health research or digital health where I can apply my analytical and language skills to contribute to impactful projects and foster professional growth.

I am currently pursuing an MSc in Digital Health at the Technological University of Shannon, Athlone, Ireland, building on my extensive background in health research and development. My professional journey includes roles as a Research Assistant with the World Health Organization and the Institute for Research and Development, where I conducted significant studies and implemented quality control measures.

Previously, I served as a Project Assistant at Caritas, Sri Lanka, managing databases and addressing migrant worker complaints. I also worked as a Fever Surveillance Assistant, collecting blood samples and preparing malaria diagnosis reports. My experience spans both fieldwork and office-based research, showcasing my adaptability and commitment to improving public health outcomes.

I hold multiple diplomas, including a CAS in MBA in International Health Management from Swiss TPH and a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Development from the University of Colombo. My skills include fluency in English, German, Tamil, and Sinhala, along with proficiency in Power BI and MySQL. I am dedicated to leveraging my skills to contribute effectively in dynamic health research environments.
