About me
I am a Biomedical Scientist and Medical Laboratory Technologist with a strong microbiology and clinical pathology foundation, backed by over a year of hands-on experience in RT-PCR testing, specimen handling, and slide preparation. My academic credentials include a Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Technology focusing on haematology, biochemistry, and microbiology, complemented by practical experience during internships at Nitte Rural Medical and Psychiatric Centre and Justice K.S. Hegde Hospital. My commitment to accuracy, compliance, and continuous learning ensures I deliver reliable results in every role.
Currently, I serve as a Laboratory Attendant at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, supporting the Seed Testing Laboratory within the Plant Science Division. My responsibilities include sample processing, laboratory hygiene, inventory management, and maintaining strict health and safety protocols. I also operate specialised lab equipment and assist in preparing media and reagents, ensuring efficient and safe laboratory operations.
In parallel, I contribute as a Healthcare Article Writer at Klarity, creating high-quality, evidence-based medical content for diverse audiences. This role enables me to leverage my scientific expertise and communication skills to educate and inform, bridging the gap between complex medical concepts and accessible information.
Previously, I worked as a Healthcare Assistant at Sonas Nursing Home, providing direct patient care and supporting clinical procedures. This hands-on experience deepened my understanding of patient needs and the importance of compassionate, person-centred care. My background includes a distinction in Infection Prevention and Control (QQI Level 5), a CPD in Activities Coordination, and a QQI Level 5 Certificate in Care Skills.
I am registered as a Medical Laboratory Technologist with the Christian Medical Association of India (CMAI) and a Biomedical Scientist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Additional certifications include Infection Prevention and Control from the WHO and courses in Generative AI and Google Data Analytics.
I am passionate about leveraging my multidisciplinary skills to make a meaningful impact in healthcare and science. I welcome opportunities to connect and collaborate and am eager to contribute to forward-thinking teams.
