I am a dedicated researcher nearing completion of my doctoral degree in Population Studies, focusing on health and aging. With a strong background in Demography and Geography, I've developed a deep understanding of these disciplines. I excel in using both qualitative and quantitative research techniques to tackle sensitive social science topics, find solutions, and optimize data utilization. My exceptional English communication skills, both written and oral, enable me to share research findings effectively. I am known for my enthusiasm, self-motivation, and problem-solving abilities, which drive success in collaborative, multidisciplinary research. My deep commitment to Demography and Geography drives my goal of an academic career, where I can contribute significantly to social science. I'm eager to share my expertise with fellow scholars who share my passion for this field.
