What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and challenges in actuarial science and financial analysis.

I am a results-driven Actuarial Analyst with hands-on experience in insurance valuation, IFRS 17 implementation, and reserving across non-life business lines. My expertise includes LRC/LIC modeling, financial condition reporting, and delivering actionable claims analytics that support underwriting and pricing strategies. I have a proven ability to partner with finance, compliance, and appointed actuaries to ensure regulatory alignment and data integrity.

Currently, I am enhancing my leadership and financial planning capabilities by pursuing an MBA. In my role at MUA Insurance, I have streamlined quarterly and annual valuation processes, executed cashflow modeling, and delivered comprehensive claims analysis reports that identify key portfolio performance drivers. My collaborative approach has allowed me to work strategically with finance teams on budgeting processes, providing critical actuarial expertise to enhance financial forecasting accuracy.
