La Toya Paul

I'm developing a federated learning framework for CARICOM disease surveillance, using privacy-preserving data collaboration while maintaining national data sovereignty. As a Data Science master's candidate at UWI St. Augustine, I connect machine learning, distributed analytics, data privacy, and public health surveillance.

At Habitat for Humanity, I've analysed financial data, prepared reports and reconciliations, maintained mortgage database integrity, and supported collections and month-end processes. I also manage safeguarding databases and produce analytical reports for the Volunteer Center of Trinidad and Tobago.

At UWI, I've facilitated Cloud Computing and Database Administration labs, guided private-cloud deployments with Oracle OpenStack, and led SQL optimisation and Oracle 19c database design tutorials. In the Marketing & Communications Office, I draft sponsorship and project proposals, maintain databases, and coordinate student-focused events.

My background also includes general ledger work, booking revenue reconciliation, staff training, web and technical foundations, and operational management. I bring structured research, clear reporting, and practical data skills to work that supports better decisions.
