MBBS (in view), Blockchain Data Analyst, Blockchain in Healthcare Researcher, SDG5 Advocate

Medicine taught me very early that good healthcare depends on more than what happens in front of a patient. Sometimes, the problem is the information that never gets there — the missing history, scattered data, or systems that were never built to work together. The more I noticed these gaps, the more I became interested in what happens beyond the clinical picture.

I did not leave medicine; I started asking bigger questions about it. That curiosity led me into research, data analysis, blockchain, and health technology — different fields that keep bringing me back to the same questions:

What is happening?

Why is it happening?

Who is affected?

And what can we do differently?

Today, those questions shape the work I build, the research I pursue, and the problems I choose to explore.

The subject changes. The questions do not.

  • Medicine

Medicine & Global Health

Medicine is where my work begins. As a medical student and researcher, I am interested in the health problems that affect people and the systems built to address them. My work has also taken me into global health, health equity, and SDG 5, where I explore questions around healthcare, gender, and social impact.

As a Millennium Fellow and Campus Director for the Class of 2025, I led Her Path to Power, an initiative focused on gender equality, SRHR, and creating greater agency and opportunity for young women.

Blockchain in Healthcare

I am interested in how blockchain could address some of the structural problems in healthcare — health records, data ownership, interoperability, and trust.

My current research is a scoping review of blockchain-based electronic health records in African healthcare: not just whether blockchain can be used here, but where it genuinely makes sense, and what implementation would actually look like in real health systems.

Blockchain Data & Analytics

I use on-chain data to understand how blockchain ecosystems and products actually behave — user activation, retention, adoption and drop-off.

Through DataInByte, my onchain adoption intelligence project, I analyse blockchain activity and build dashboards on Dune that turn raw on-chain data into clearer stories about how people use these products. Evidence from the chain, rather than assumptions or vanity metrics.
