Marlyse Douanla

I am an Environmental Health professional with a Master’s degree in Standards and Quality Control. I have several years of experience in food safety and quality assurance, where I’ve worked on compliance, inspections, and ensuring that processes meet regulatory standards.

More recently, I’ve strengthened my public health knowledge through my studies in Environmental Health, focusing on areas like infection prevention and control, outbreak investigation, and risk assessment. I’m particularly interested in protecting community health through safe environments whether in food systems, healthcare settings, or public facilities.

I’m also bilingual in English and French, which allows me to communicate effectively with diverse populations. Currently, I’m looking to apply my skills in a role where I can contribute to public health protection, continue learning, and make a meaningful impact in the community.
