Aspiring data analyst with strong statistical and analytical skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and detail-oriented data analyst with a Bachelor of Science in Statistics and IT from Turing College. My journey in data science began with a Data Science Bootcamp at The Co-operative University of Kenya, where I honed my skills in statistical analysis, data visualization, and problem-solving. I have a strong foundation in programming languages such as R and Python, and I am proficient in data tools like Tableau and PowerBI.
Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience working on various projects, including the Mtoto Childline Kenya Project, where I performed data cleaning and exploratory data analysis, and the Tanzanian Water Well Project, where I utilized web scraping and data visualization techniques to identify regions in need of well repairs. Currently, I am a Data Analyst at Wings Recruitment Agency LTD, where I collaborate with recruiters to analyze applicant data and ensure data quality for accurate insights.
