What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning in data analytics.

I am a dedicated data scientist currently pursuing my Master of Science in Business Analytics at Emory University. My journey in data science began with a Bachelor's Degree in Nutrition and Food Science from Colorado State University, where I developed a strong foundation in analytical thinking and problem-solving. I thrive on transforming complex data into actionable insights that drive strategic decisions.

In my current role as a Data Scientist Intern at SmartSQL, I have successfully built an AI-powered SQL exam platform that not only reduces professor workload but also enhances student engagement through innovative features like adaptive scoring and a conversational AI agent. My experience as a Data Scientist Consultant at Pennybacker Capital further honed my skills in unifying fragmented data sources and developing predictive models that inform investment strategies. I am passionate about using data to tell compelling stories and support organizational growth.
