I code in Python, R and R Shiny, Stata and PL/SQL and I have a PhD in Data Science.

As a Technical Analyst at the Independent Health and Aged Care Pricing Authority, I specialize in modeling national health data using ICD-10 and ACHI intervention codes to assess funding for public hospital admissions across Australia. My work focuses on analyzing the complexity of the patient and patient care to support data-driven decisions on Activity-Based Funding.

With ten years of experience as a Medical Biostatistician and Lead Data Scientist, I have applied statistical methodologies, including causal mediation analysis, causal inference and machine learning to large-scale health datasets to derive impactful insights. My expertise lies in statistical methods, programming, medical and public health knowledge, team leadership, and I am driven to contribute to evidence-based solutions.
