My publications span health informatics, healthcare analytics, and trustworthy AI, with a particular focus on improving data quality and decision-making in large-scale administrative and clinical datasets. Across journal articles, conference proceedings, and peer-reviewed posters, I study real-world issues such as home healthcare performance, caregiver technology adoption, and explainable medical imaging—translating methodological advances into practical insights for health systems and policy stakeholders.
