With years of experience in epidemiology and a specialization in infectious disease modeling, I bring expertise in economic modeling, public health data analysis, systematic literature reviews, and medical writing to my collaborations with interdisciplinary teams from top companies around the world.This work has resulted in high-quality research that supports client and stakeholder goals, culminating in numerous peer-review studies published in academic journals and presented at conferences.I am passionate about advancing healthcare decision-making, especially when informed by the patient experience. I have recently obtained a certification in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and clinical outcomes assessment (COA) strategy and analysis.
