Biostatistician | SAS & STATA Expert | Survey Data, Causal Inference & Publication-Ready Analysis

プロフィール概要

I am a trained biostatistician and public health scientist with extensive experience in statistical analysis, survey methodology, and applied research. My work focuses on transforming complex datasets into clear, actionable insights that support scientific publications, program evaluation, and evidence-based decision-making. I have strong expertise in SAS and STATA, with a particular focus on analyzing complex survey data (including nationally representative datasets), regression modeling, and causal inference methods. I am highly experienced in working with weighted data, handling missing data, and producing reproducible, publication-ready results. My research experience includes tobacco regulatory research, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and reproductive health outcomes, and socioeconomic disparities. I have conducted analyses using advanced statistical techniques such as multivariable regression, propensity score methods, mediation analysis, and sensitivity analyses. I am also experienced in generating high-quality tables, figures, and statistical reports suitable for peer-reviewed journals. In addition to data analysis, I support clients throughout the full research process, including: Study design and statistical analysis planning Data cleaning and management Model selection and diagnostics Interpretation of results Preparation of manuscript-ready tables and figures I have worked with complex survey datasets and understand the importance of applying appropriate weights, variance estimation techniques, and design-based inference. My approach emphasizes rigor, transparency, and reproducibility. I hold advanced training in biostatistics and have a strong foundation in epidemiology and health behavior research. I am also experienced in working with multidisciplinary teams and can effectively communicate statistical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences. I am committed to delivering high-quality work, meeting deadlines, and providing clear communication throughout each project. Whether you need support for a research paper, thesis, grant proposal, or data analysis project, I am available to provide reliable and professional statistical consulting.

The incidence rate for days of poor physical health was 26% lower (p = 0.001) for those who provided care during the COVID-19 pandemic, though the incidence rates for days of poor mental health were not statistically different between groups. Informal caregivers with low educational attainment mostly experienced significantly higher IRRs for days of poor physical and mental health. Younger informal caregivers had a significantly lower IRR for days of poor physical health, but higher IRR for days of poor mental health.

CONFERENCE POSTER

The National Tobacco Use and Transitions Survey (NTTS, March 2020 through April 2022; N= 251,435) dataset was utilized. NTTS is a monthly repeated cross-sectional survey of the U.S. adult population, designed to collect information related to tobacco use behaviors across a broad range of tobacco product categories. Analyses investigated established regular cigarette smoking among established e-cigarette users (at least 100 lifetime uses; n = 5,661) compared to never e-cigarette users (not even once or twice; n = 198,655) .

This analysis examined adult data from the PATH study (Waves 1 through 4) to measure cigarette smoking cessation among baseline exclusive cigarette smokers compared to baseline dual users of cigarettes and e-cigarettes. Analyses applied a multi-state Markov chain model to project 1-year transition probabilities for up to 5 years, with a focus on cigarette abstinence in a subsequent wave .

In this work in progress session, we will describe our early steps in an ongoing college drinking prevention project, which have focused on eliciting decision-makers’ mental models and preferences for action – both individually, and after discussing their perspectives as a group within a single community .
