What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can use trade and econometrics analysis to support logistics, trade, and supply chain decisions. I want to contribute to data-driven planning, operational efficiency, and clearer market access insights.

I’m an Economics graduate with a BCom Honours in Economics and a BCom in Economic Sciences specialising in International Trade. I’m driven by the challenge of understanding how “global markets, supply chains, and economic systems interact,” and I aim to turn that understanding into data-driven decision-making.

Through my studies, I built a strong analytical foundation across econometrics, international economics, spatial economics, microeconomics, and macroeconomics. I graduated with Distinction, made the Dean’s List, and was a Golden Key International Honour Society member—proof that I stay rigorous and consistent in how I learn and apply concepts.

My applied work focused on economics in real-world settings: I analysed “competitive strategy, market structure, and global expansion dynamics” for the international beverage industry, and I explored how “geographic economic patterns influence infrastructure development, trade flows, and regional economic growth.” I also applied econometric modelling using EViews and Excel to interpret relationships across macroeconomic datasets.

Now I’m looking to contribute in a logistics, trade, or supply chain environment where operational efficiency and market insight matter. I’ve used ITC trade analysis tools to explore “international trade flows, export competitiveness, and market access opportunities,” and I bring structured reporting, strategic thinking, and clear communication to every analysis.
