I am a biostatistician and research methodologist who designs studies, writes protocols, and runs the analyses that get research funded and published. I have written successful NIH and biotech grants, published 10+ manuscripts in high-impact journals including Nature and Gastroenterology, and presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology. I hold a Bachelor's in Biophysics from Harvard and a Master's in Data Science from Columbia, and I carry a 100% Job Success Rating across every client I have worked with on this platform. I work with academic investigators, biotech and medtech companies, and clinical teams who need the statistical backbone of a study built correctly the first time. That means a protocol that will survive review, an analysis plan written before the data arrives, and results reported in a form a journal or a funder will accept. WHAT I DO: * Research protocol development, including aims, endpoints, eligibility criteria, and study procedures * Study design across observational, retrospective, and interventional research * Statistical analysis plans, sample size justification, and power analysis * Statistical analysis and interpretation, including regression modeling, survival analysis, longitudinal and repeated measures data, and diagnostic accuracy * Grant preparation for NIH and private funders, covering the statistical and methodological sections * Manuscript support, from methods and results writing through reviewer response * Clinical and real world data analysis using EHR data, ICD-10 coded records, and clinical databases under HIPAA constraints * Publication quality figures, tables, and data visualization TECHNICAL SKILLS: * R and Python for statistical computing, with SQL for clinical database work * Machine learning and predictive modeling with scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow, numpy, and pandas * Reproducible analysis pipelines and documented, auditable code * Business intelligence and reporting in Tableau, PowerBI, and Excel * Applied AI where it accelerates research work, including literature screening, protocol drafting support, and extraction of structured data from PDFs and clinical documents using large language models and retrieval systems * AI dashboards built in Streamlit, Gradio, and Hugging Face so teams can interact with their own data directly BACKGROUND: * Co-Founder and CTO of Daldot, a biotech company acquired by Nutromics, an Australian medtech company, in 2021 * 10+ peer reviewed publications in journals including Nature and Gastroenterology * Research presented at ASCO and the Columbia University Data Science Institute Machine Learning in Science and Engineering Conference * 2nd Place, Columbia University Data Science Institute COVID-19 Data Challenge * Columbia University SEAS GSA Black History Month Alumni Spotlight, 2023 TEACHING: * Guest Lecturer at Columbia University, Cornell Tech, the Roux Institute, and the Founder Institute * Developed a course on emotional intelligence for startup founders at Harvard University with 1,000+ students enrolled EDUCATION: * Master's in Data Science, Columbia University * Bachelor's in Biophysics, Harvard University If you have a study that needs designing, a protocol that needs writing, or data that needs an analysis you can defend, get in touch!

I am an epidemiologist and biostatistician with over five years of applied experience conducting statistical analyses for clinical, public health, and health services research. I currently work full-time as a biostatistician at UCLA Health, supporting physician-led and investigator-initiated studies across multiple medical specialties. My training includes an MPH, an MS in Data Analytics, and formal graduate-level coursework in biostatistics and epidemiologic methods. I specialize in the design, analysis, and interpretation of observational and clinical data, with particular strength in causal inference, regression modeling, and large-scale healthcare datasets. I have extensive experience working with electronic health records and claims data (including longitudinal, high-dimensional datasets), and I routinely translate complex statistical results into clear, decision-relevant outputs for clinicians and research teams. Technical expertise includes: - Statistical modeling: logistic, linear, Cox and competing risks models, mixed-effects models, generalized estimating equations - Causal and quasi-experimental methods: propensity scores (matching/weighting), difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity - Study design and power/sample size calculations - Machine learning for prediction (with an emphasis on interpretability) - Reproducible analysis pipelines and reporting Tools: SAS (Base and Advanced 9.4 certified), R, Python, SQL I frequently support projects end-to-end, including analytic plan development, data cleaning and cohort construction, model implementation, results interpretation, and preparation of tables and figures for manuscripts, grant applications, and regulatory or internal reports. I am also available for targeted statistical consulting, code review, and methodological troubleshooting. I am particularly well-suited for clients who need rigorous, publication-quality biostatistical support and clear communication—not black-box analyses. If you are working with health, clinical, or epidemiologic data and need a statistician who understands both methodology and applied constraints, I can help.
