Actuarial science graduate and data scientist applying quantitative analysis to drive business decisions.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented Actuarial Science graduate with hands-on experience in data science, financial modeling, and risk assessment. I leverage SQL, R, Python and Power BI to derive actionable insights and build predictive solutions that support strategic decision-making.
In my current role as a Data Scientist I collect, clean, and transform multi-source datasets, perform exploratory analysis, and develop interactive dashboards and automated reports to inform stakeholders. I have built time-series forecasting models (ARIMA) with strong short-term accuracy and executed customer segmentation projects using K-Means and PCA.
I combine actuarial training with practical analytics to reduce manual processes and improve decision quality; I seek opportunities where I can apply quantitative methods to solve complex business problems and drive measurable impact.
