What I'm looking for

I seek a role applying quantitative risk and data skills, with opportunities to build AI-driven finance solutions, automate reporting, and influence strategic decisions.

I am a Risk Analyst with strong expertise in financial risk assessment, portfolio management, and data-driven decision support. I leverage Python, SQL, VBA and Bloomberg Terminal to build models, automate reporting and improve forecasting, delivering tangible time savings and clearer insights for senior stakeholders.

My achievements include automating deposit trend visualizations, validating econometric inflow/outflow models, building VaR simulations and coordinating NAV automation that saved significant team hours. I am particularly interested in applying artificial intelligence to finance and actively assist colleagues with AI adoption and prompt engineering.
