Public Health Instruction
As a current Dutch Public Health Instructor, I have comprehensive experience in educating university students on various topics in public health and policy. Please see below for a list of recently taught public health course topics.
Training & Course Development
With almost a decade of experience in public health, international development, and quality improvement, I offer training and support with course development in these key areas. For more details about my work experience and areas of expertise, please visit the About page.
Situation Analysis
Situation analysis, supported by desk research provides the opportunity to critically evaluate the opportunities and challenges for an organization or factors related to a new activity.
Writing & Editing
Need support in academic or technical writing? Perhaps you may need a assistance with formatting and editing an article? In addition to publishing several articles, I have served as a guest editor in the ISQua journal. I am here for your writing and editing needs!
Literature Review
Unsure of where to start? Literature reviews and desk audits provide a good means of understanding a phenomenon, whether it is for academic purposes or in preparation for a new project.
