Yoshi has been managing, analyzing, and mining data in the clinical arena since 1998. At the Hospital for Sick Children and Toronto General Hospital, she worked in clinical research with a focus on cystic fibrosis and liver diseases.
She later extended her knowledge of clinical research as a Project Manager of clinical trials within the pharmaceutical industry at Schering Plough Research Institute (now Merck & Co.). Yoshi was a principal contributor to process harmonization, devising a common set of best practices within the Global/International clinical research division, and a subject matter expert driving requirements for a web-based data collection and management solution that became the industry standard.
Yoshi first joined Mount Sinai Hospital in the Informatics Department, performing in a lead role for the design, build, and implementation of Computer Physician Order Entry (CPOE). She was also active in a number of data solutions, including Business Intelligence Analytics, MOHLTC data reporting initiatives, and managed the development of a web-based application serving 11 hospitals within Ontario.
Yoshi later joined the MSH-UHN Antimicrobial Stewardship Program in 2012 as a Project Manager under the CAHO ASP Intensive Care Units ARTIC initiative, a two-year provincial project aimed to establish antimicrobial stewardship programs in ICUs in Ontario’s academic hospitals.
