What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my analytical and programming skills to drive business growth and improve data reliability.

As a seasoned data professional with seven years of experience, I have developed a strong proficiency in financial and customer analysis using advanced Excel, SQL, and Python. My expertise in ensuring service quality through collaboration with product teams, marketing teams, and clients has earned me a reputation as a reliable and motivated individual. I am excited to apply my analytical and programming skills to ensure data reliability and build robust data pipelines.

With a strong background in data engineering and business analysis, I have successfully enhanced customer satisfaction, reduced query execution time, and increased data retrieval speed in my previous roles. I am confident in my ability to leverage my skills in data warehouse design, ETL, Airflow, Machine Learning, and Quantitative finance to drive business growth.

I am currently pursuing a Master of Business Analytics at the University of British Columbia, where I am expanding my knowledge in data management, business analytics programming, and data visualization. I am excited to bring my skills and experience to a new challenge and contribute to a team that values data-driven decision-making.
