What I'm looking for
I am a statistics-trained data professional with hands-on experience in applied analytics, modeling, and data engineering tools. I combine rigorous statistical methods with practical business understanding to drive measurable outcomes.

My academic work includes projects in statistical learning, multivariate analysis, and programming for analytics where I applied Lasso, Elastic Net, Random Forests, MANOVA, PCA, and hypothesis testing using R, Python, and SAS to extract insights and build predictive models.
