Brief profile: 
I am a medical physiologist specializing in reproductive Physiology, maternal and child health, and public health research. My work focuses on the impact of micronutrients, dietary diversity, and behavioral factors (such as substance use) on pregnancy outcomes and overall health. I integrate experimental physiology, Pharmacology, epidemiology, and community-based studies to generate evidence that informs health policy and strengthens health systems in Africa.
