​Prior to my faculty appointment, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Washington, working across the Department of Global Health, Bioengineering, and Computer Science. Internationally, I held academic and research positions with the Kenyan Ministry of Health, Chiang Mai University, and Kasetsart University in Thailand.
​I am the recipient of several early-career awards and fellowships, including from the UW/Fred Hutch CFAR, SEATRAC, Thrasher Research Fund, UW ITHS, UW Population Health Initiative, Momental Foundation (Mistletoe Fellow), and Rice360 Institute for Global Health Technologies. I also launched the UW–Thailand–Dx Circle program to foster capacity building in diagnostics and technology transfer in Southeast Asia.
