Profile Summary

I am a physician-scientist with an MBBS and a PhD in Public Health from Tulane University, where I trained on a Fulbright scholarship. My research spans environmental health, reproductive and maternal health, climate and child nutrition, and implementation science across South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the United States. I have produced peer-reviewed publications in journals including BMJ Public Health and Frontiers in Global Women's Health, led and contributed to systematic reviews following PRISMA guidelines, and written grant proposals for USAID, NIH-affiliated funders, and international foundations. I am experienced in both quantitative analysis (Stata, R, SPSS, SAS) and qualitative analysis (NVivo, Maxqda), with a strong publication record as first author. I work with researchers and organizations who need rigorous, well-written scientific outputs delivered on time. My clients can expect clear communication, methodological care, and writing that is accessible without sacrificing precision. What I can help you with: - Systematic and scoping reviews (PRISMA-compliant) - Peer-reviewed manuscript writing and editing - Grant proposal writing (NIH, USAID, foundations) - Statistical analysis in Stata, R, or SPSS - Qualitative data analysis using NVivo or Maxqda - Literature reviews and evidence synthesis - Research reports and policy briefs
