I’m passionate about making research more relevant to the communities it’s meant to serve. I’ve seen how using methods that don’t fit the local context can limit our understanding and impact, so my goal is to create approaches that truly reflect the realities of the people we study. By designing research that aligns with the unique needs and cultures of these communities, I believe we can gain deeper insights and drive real change. In my work so far, I’ve seen firsthand how important it is to adapt methods to the local context, and that’s what I’m committed to doing moving forward.

Right now, I’m helping with the data extraction of a systematic review. At Busara, I’ve been learning a lot about the organization’s ethical approach to research, particularly in how we design and conduct studies in a way that is both responsible and impactful. I’ve also been exploring some of the gaps that still exist in addressing ethical challenges in research, and I’m passionate about contributing to solutions that help bridge those gaps.

Before joining Busara, I completed my Master’s in Clinical Psychology, where I focused on social anxiety, peer victimization, and social support among adolescents. I’m passionate about research that’s relevant to the communities it’s meant to serve, and through my work I’ve gained experience in research design and data analysis. I’m excited to apply this background at Busara, learning and contributing to projects that aim to make a real difference.
