About

I am a Clinical Nutritionist dedicated to improving maternal, infant, and child health outcomes through evidence-based nutritional care. My expertise centers on pediatric anthropometric assessments, acute malnutrition screening, and targeted IYCF counseling for underserved populations. I have a proven track record of leading community health education initiatives and maintaining rigorous patient registers that align with global public health standards. Having collaborated closely with multidisciplinary medical teams, I am now seeking to leverage my clinical skills to drive large-scale nutrition programs within an international development context.
