Background

About Nikhitha Poladi

From Dentistry to Data: Bridging Healthcare and Analytics My journey started in the clinical world—practicing as a dentist in India for three years, I experienced firsthand the challenges and complexities of healthcare. I was always fascinated by the intersection of patient care and data, where insights could drive better outcomes. In 2022, I moved to the U.S. to explore this passion further, earning my Master’s in Health Informatics from DePaul University. This transition allowed me to merge my clinical expertise with analytical skills, diving deep into data-driven decision-making in healthcare. Through my experience in electronic health records (EHR) support, clinical workflows, and revenue cycle management, I developed a strong foundation in healthcare IT and analytics. Now, as I embark on the next phase of my career, I am eager to leverage my background in healthcare and data analysis to drive meaningful insights, improve operational efficiency, and support evidence-based decision-making. Whether it's working with large datasets, identifying trends, or optimizing healthcare processes, I thrive in transforming complex information into actionable strategies. I am actively seeking data analyst roles where I can contribute my analytical mindset, problem-solving abilities, and passion for healthcare. Let’s connect and explore how we can make a data-driven impact in healthcare together!
