Bio

I’m a clinical researcher, AI policy innovator, and public health advocate based in the Greater Chicago area. My work sits at the intersection of medicine, global clinical trials, and data-driven public health. Currently, I’m pursuing a Master of Science in Clinical Research Management at Arizona State University, focusing on regulatory policy, ethics, and the integration of AI into clinical research and health systems.

My journey has taken me from coordinating international Phase IV clinical trials, to developing AI-enabled health risk early warning systems. I’m deeply passionate about improving informed consent literacy, increasing participation of underrepresented communities in clinical research, and building cost-effective, equitable research infrastructures.

Alongside research, I write children’s books and youth stories, creating engaging tools that connect emotional development, culture, and education. My long-term vision is to build a Global Clinical Research & Policy Innovation Network that advances evidence-based health and clinical trials systems worldwide.
