I am an obstetrician-gynecologist, reproductive medicine specialist with extensive experience in public health, health management, and women’s health, and I hold a PhD in business administration. I lecture at the Sachkhere Academy of Business and Technology and have extensive experience in the design and evaluation of community-based health systems. My work focuses on integrating traditional medicine, ethnobotany, and rural innovations into sustainable health systems and bioeconomy strategies. I am particularly interested in empowering local communities through smart self-care practices, revitalizing ethnobotanical heritage, and developing environmentally friendly health products. My approach is interdisciplinary, connecting healthcare, education, biodiversity, and regional innovation. I am open to collaborating with researchers, organizations, and stakeholders who aim to promote holistic, culturally sensitive, and environmentally sustainable healthcare models.
