What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level Data Analyst or analytics-focused Data Science role where I can build dashboards, analyze data with Python and SQL, and deliver clear business insights while learning from a collaborative team.

I’m a Data Science and Business Analytics Master’s student at Bologna Business School, building advanced skills through an intensive Data Analyst Bootcamp. I turn raw data into actionable decision support by applying Python and SQL for analysis, and creating dashboards in Power BI, including a capstone focused on delivering business insights.

In my ALX Ghana Data Mapping and Business Development Fellowship, I collected and processed employer market data, identified ideal talent matches, and maintained detailed job opportunity and candidate interaction records. I’ve also strengthened my operations and communication foundation through a Public Affairs internship, National Service at Stanbic Bank (including client record transition and valuation report support), and leadership in AIESEC Ghana where I planned recruitment and marketing strategies.
