Epidemiology & Healthcare Data Portfolio

Haley Luu

MPH Epidemiology Candidate | Applied Epidemiology & Healthcare Data Analysis | Disease Prevention | Health Equity

With a foundation in biological sciences and a growing background in healthcare data analytics, I am pursuing an MPH in Epidemiology and a Data Science Certificate at UTHealth Houston. I also hold an MS in Biology and a BS in Chemistry, with professional experience spanning pharmacy, clinical laboratory testing, biomedical research, and public health informatics.

I am interested in applying epidemiology, data analysis, and scientific research to better understand health disparities, inform prevention strategies, and improve health outcomes for individuals and communities.

About My Work

My academic and professional experiences have allowed me to work across scientific research, healthcare, and data analysis. I've gained experience with statistical methods, qualitative research, healthcare data management, and data visualization.

I enjoy investigating complex problems, identifying patterns, and translating data and scientific evidence into meaningful insights. I'm particularly interested in research and analytical work that supports disease prevention, addresses health disparities, and informs evidence-based decisions.

Featured Work

My projects reflect my experience applying statistical methods, analyzing clinical and population health data, and exploring public health research questions. They highlight different aspects of my training in epidemiology, data analysis, and scientific research.

Additional work will be added as projects are finalized.
