What I'm looking for

I seek a performance-driven role in trading, quantitative research, or analytics teams where I can apply ML, time-series analysis, and data engineering to directly impact strategy and outcomes.

I am an entry-level data scientist with strong foundations in statistics, probability, machine learning, and quantitative analytics, experienced in transforming large, complex datasets into decision-driving insights.

I have hands-on experience in time-series analysis, experimental design, performance analytics, dashboarding, and analytical modeling, and I have built predictive models and automated data workflows using Python, SQL, Snowflake, and cloud platforms.

In internships and projects I delivered Power BI dashboards, containerized applications with Docker/Minikube, implemented a modified overlapping K-Means for financial segmentation, and conducted large-scale text and sentiment analysis to drive stakeholder insights.
