Who I Am

Clinical Expertise
Meets Data Science

I'm a clinically trained PharmD graduate from Tamil Nadu, India, with a rare blend of hands-on patient care experience and modern data analytics skills.

During my internships at Premier Research / Mysore Medical College and Karpagam Faculty of Medical Science, I gained firsthand exposure to SDV procedures, site-monitor communication, query resolution, and ADR causality assessment across 4 concurrent studies.

My passion lies at the intersection of pharmacovigilance, clinical data management, and regulatory compliance — using tools like REDCap, SQL, Python, and SPSS to drive smarter, evidence-based decisions in healthcare.

I bring ALCOA+ principles, ICH-GCP standards, and a clinician's mindset to every dataset I touch.
