## About

```text
At Leia Health AB, I built and maintained daily and weekly Mixpanel reports to track user activity and engagement. I analysed KPI trends and supported A/B testing to inform product decisions.

For my MSc thesis at Stockholm University, I built an end-to-end machine learning pipeline for day-ahead electricity grid congestion forecasting using Temporal Fusion Transformer and LightGBM. I applied SHAP to make model outputs useful to non-technical stakeholders.

As an AI Strategy Consultant in SLU's Academic Consultancy Programme, I assessed a Swedish agricultural startup's data infrastructure and digital maturity. I translated business needs into an actionable data and AI adoption roadmap and presented it to company stakeholders.

Earlier, at Société Générale (China), I bridged compliance requirements between operations and front-office teams during a banking transformation project. I also worked as a Personal Banking Associate at Citibank China, managing a client pipeline from outreach through deal closure.
