Summary

My passion for public health has evolved significantly during my academic journey as a dentist, fueled by hands-on experiences in health checkups and blood donation camps. Throughout my Master of Public Health (MPH) program, courses in biostatistics, research methods, advanced statistical programming and business analytics ignited my interest in healthcare data analysis. As I approach my final year of the MPH program, this passion continues to thrive.
