Data Scientist Specializing in
Machine Learning | Deep Learning | Health Informatics
As a highly skilled Data Scientist with over four years of experience, I specialize in developing and deploying machine learning solutions that significantly impact healthcare outcomes, particularly in HIV, Cancer, Tuberculosis, and public health emergencies. I have successfully utilized data-driven methodologies to improve patient outcomes and public health responses.
My work is driven by a vision to harness the power of AI and data science to transform conventional health systems into dynamic, adaptive, and intelligent health ecosystems that proactively respond to the needs of communities, particularly in resource-constrained settings. My goal is to create a resilient infrastructure that elevates healthcare service delivery, accelerates disease prevention, and enhances the impact of diagnosis and treatment. By integrating cutting-edge technology with a deep understanding of public health challenges, I strive to lead initiatives that drive sustainable health outcomes and revolutionize how we address complex health issues globally.
