From childhood dreams of pediatric doctor to a love for programming in high school, my journey took a turn during the COVID-19 pandemic. Witnessing the struggles of the underprivileged without access to vital health information, I redirected my focus to real-time data collection and connecting those in need to medical supplies. My computer science coursework highlighted the power of computation in healthcare, leading me to pursue a Master’s in Health Informatics.  Armed with this degree, I aim to lead research on integrated and interoperable Electronic Health Record Systems, unifying diverse healthcare data and building models for hyper-individualized, data-driven disease prediction, discovery, and treatment.

​Healthcare is complicated. It is rapidly changing with the advent of new therapies, new data, and new opportunities. It is a complex environment and getting it right is a challenge. This is an endeavor I am committed to.
