Research interest:

My research lies at the intersection of environmental epidemiology and public health, with a focus on how environmental factors and climate influence population health. My work aims to understand the health impacts of environmental exposures on communities, especially within rural and marginalized settings.

Through this research, I seeks to contribute to the development of public health strategies and policies that mitigate environmental health risks, ultimately improving health outcomes for vulnerable populations.
