Highlights, Experience & Education

Highlights

I graduated as a physician in 2020. I established the Scrivener Agency in 2020. However, I have about five years of experience as a Medical Writer who has fact-checked and composed thousands of medical articles and contributed to several online resources. Beyond practicing healthcare, I hope to be a medical educator by curating evidence-based content and highlighting clinical insights. Also, to improve health information on different platforms and create digital alternatives for public health education.


Several instances have drawn me to medicine. It is a very nuanced privilege to use medicine as a tool to serve and to impact a person's health positively. I believe that patient education is an essential aspect of preventive medicine. Every patient should be an informed advocate for their health; thus, providing accurate health information and accessibility for patients and their families is crucial.
