About

I am a retired Research Officer from the National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW) with over 33 years of experience in public health research, academic teaching, health systems strengthening, and capacity-building initiatives. My professional work spans research design, data analysis, academic instruction, program coordination, and training management for national and international public health professionals. I have contributed extensively to health research studies, academic programs, and policy-relevant training initiatives in collaboration with state health departments, academic institutions, and development partners. I bring strong expertise in public health administration, research methodology, teaching at the master’s level, training evaluation, and stakeholder coordination. I am particularly interested in opportunities related to public health consulting, academic/teaching roles, research advisory positions, and health program management at national and international levels. Open to short-term and long-term consultancy, visiting faculty, mentoring, and advisory roles in public health.
