Profile Summary

I am an experienced research scientist with a demonstrated years of working in health care continuum, corporate and consultancy. With my outstanding background in information technology and statistics, I have been able to automate a monitoring, evaluation and learning system to be able to collect, clean, analyze data and automatically visualize reports on dashboards in real-time. A part from spending my invaluable time in wrangling and analyzing complex data, developing medical decision support systems and predictive models, I find it insightful to inform the society on new research findings. Over the years, I have managed to use a number of scientific writing and publications as a tool to help the society make informed decisions based on evidence. At the moment I am working on a multi-ensemble model to help with early screening and prevention of cancer.
