What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth opportunities in analytics.

I am a Data Analytics Director with over 19 years of experience in the banking sector, currently leading the Data Analytics department at Wing Bank in Cambodia. My journey began with a B.Tech in Industrial Engineering from IIT Kharagpur, where I developed a strong foundation in analytics and data science. Over the years, I have successfully set up Data Science departments from scratch in my last two organizations, demonstrating my ability to drive innovation and efficiency.

My expertise spans various analytics tools and techniques, including predictive modeling, machine learning, and data visualization. I have a proven track record of delivering impactful analytics solutions that enhance decision-making processes and drive business growth. Notably, I led the development of a Decision Science department that achieved a 3x growth in the 'Instant Digital Lending' portfolio, reaching USD 30 million in FY2024. My leadership experience includes managing high-performing teams and engaging with C-level stakeholders to align analytics strategies with business objectives.
