What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated data scientist with a strong background in data analysis, machine learning, and statistical analysis. My journey in the field began with a B.Sc. in Statistics from the University of Abuja, where I developed a solid foundation in data-driven decision-making. Over the years, I have honed my skills through various roles, including as a Junior Data Scientist and Independent Consultant, where I successfully implemented data-driven strategies that significantly improved client outcomes.

In my recent role as an Independent Consultant, I led market research and data analysis projects for diverse clients, enhancing their sales pipelines and decision-making processes. My ability to create visually compelling dashboards using tools like Excel, Tableau, and Power BI has been instrumental in translating complex data into actionable insights. I take pride in my collaborative approach, working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver customized solutions that align with business goals.

Throughout my career, I have consistently achieved measurable results, such as improving user engagement by 15% through a recommendation system and increasing project completion rates by 45% through advanced data tracking methodologies. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive business success and am eager to contribute my expertise to a forward-thinking organization.
