What I'm looking for

Remote-first junior to mid-level data and AI roles where I can apply analytics, build dashboards, support decision-making, and continue developing real-world experience with global teams.

I am a motivated and adaptable tech professional with a strong interest in data analysis, AI-driven solutions, and remote-first work environments. I have experience working with data, digital tools, and online platforms, and I enjoy solving problems, learning new technologies, and improving processes through technology.

I have worked on academic, internship, and personal projects involving data handling, analysis, and online systems, which have helped me build a solid foundation in analytical thinking, communication, and technical troubleshooting. I am comfortable working independently, following guidelines, and meeting deadlines in remote settings.

I am currently seeking entry-level or junior remote roles where I can contribute, learn from experienced teams, and continue developing my skills in data, AI, and modern technology stacks.
