About

I’m a computer scientist and health services researcher with a PhD Health Services Research and BSc Computer Science from the University of Calgary, Canada.  My interests also include Medical Informatics and Global Health. 

Research and Software Development

Most of my projects  start out as self-interest initiatives based upon recognizing a healthcare related problem that needs to be solved and then developing software to  improve the workflow and automate the process. These projects have included:
