Aug. 2018 - Apr. 2019Brooklyn, New YorkI recruited a panel of 23 patients with complex health diagnoses to identify and address emerging healthcare needs. I tested a custom-built healthcare facilitation platform designed to digitally collect user health data, record tasks, track patient progress, and facilitate communication between patients and their care teams. By capturing and analyzing patient feedback, I identified opportunities for feature development and interface design, leading to the implementation of an appointment reminder system.

Aug. 2017 - Aug. 2018Albany, New York AreaI analyzed data from 200 patient medical records of mother-infant pairs with serological evidence of Zika virus, unveiling significant correlations between maternal Zika infection and newborn microcephaly. I conducted over 50 semi-structured phone interviews with medical providers, gathering and confirming patient health data with a 95% completion rate. I utilized the NYSZPIR collection tool and SAS (9.4) to centralize and meticulously clean over 200 research data points for in-depth analysis. I presented findings to upper-level management, effectively highlighting 10 key findings and transparently addressing 5 major study limitations.

I collected and analyzed epidemiological and surveillance data from over 500 individuals to identify key problems and pain points of populations at risk of developing chronic diseases. I created an all-women’s exercise group, supporting 24 women in collectively losing 296 pounds in six months, significantly improving their health and well-being. I collaborated with country-national representatives and cross-functional teams to reconstruct a dilapidated health clinic in the village of Pomona Valley, enhancing medical services for approximately 3,000 residents.
