What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth in data science and machine learning, where I can apply my analytical skills to drive impactful decisions.

I am an analytical and results-oriented data analyst with a strong academic foundation in economics, statistics, and data science. My experience includes leveraging SPSS, Python, and AI tools to extract insights, build predictive models, and support data-driven decision-making. I am passionate about machine learning and artificial intelligence, using analytics to solve complex problems in impactful ways.

During my education at Moringa School, I developed hands-on projects such as a customer churn prediction model using logistic regression and random forests, and an interactive COVID-19 dashboard visualizing pandemic trends. My internship at the National Treasury involved conducting economic policy research and analysis, where I supported senior economists in preparing financial reviews and policy reports. I also worked as a store manager, where I introduced data-driven improvements to streamline operations and mentored a small team.
