Nikhil Patil

Program Support Specialist

Nikhil D. Patil, MPH (he/him/his) is a passionate global maternal & child health specialist with over 15 years of experience in program management, data analytics, and implementation research. He is focused on the use of novel research methods and technologies to collect better data and support effective, data-driven decision making across health systems in low-resource settings. Prior to joining Nexleaf, Nikhil worked for several organizations including the Task Force for Global Health, CDC Foundation, Gobee Group, eHealth Africa, Innovations for Poverty Action, and RTI International. A former health volunteer with the US Peace Corps in Togo, he holds an MPH in Maternal & Child Health from the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill, and a BS in Psychology from the Georgia Institute of Technology.

As a Program Support Specialist at Nexleaf, Nikhil provides project management for the co-design and development of the “Rapid Response and Repair” (R3) initiative – country-specific playbooks outlining how to access and use data to fund and operationalize cold chain equipment management and maintenance across all levels of a health system.

Based in Atlanta, Nikhil has lived, worked, and traveled to over 40 countries, and he speaks conversational French and Spanish. When not working, Nikhil enjoys cooking, running, biking, hiking, reading & writing, and spending time with his husband, his two-year old daughter, and their two cats.
