What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an entry-level accounting or financial analysis role where I can apply rigorous financial analysis, data cleaning, regression analysis, and clear research communication to turn data into trustworthy insights.

I've independently analyzed ten years of Cooperative Bank of Oromia annual-report data, building a multivariate regression model to examine liquidity, profitability, bank size, digital lending, and operational efficiency.

For my Addis Ababa University research, I designed a concurrent triangulation mixed-methods study, cleaned and structured financial panel data, and produced statistically significant findings that challenged prior literature. I communicate findings through APA 7th-edition research reporting and practical financial analysis.

I also built a 400-film dataset for an independent quantitative study on villain sympathy and box-office success, delivering a written report and interactive Excel workbook with a dashboard, correlation matrix, and regression output.

I'm an Accounting and Finance graduate with distinction, advanced Excel skills, R data-science training, and certifications in data analytics, auditing, forensic accounting, management, and communication.
