What I'm looking for

I seek a role in insurance, risk, or compliance that leverages my underwriting and analytical skills, offers growth, and values process improvement and collaboration.

I am an actuarial science graduate with hands-on underwriting experience and a track record of improving pricing, renewals, and operational efficiency. I blend quantitative training with practical insurance practice to drive profitable outcomes and strong client relationships.

In underwriting roles I optimized pricing structures, streamlined policy terms, and trained teams to raise product knowledge and accuracy. My research work involved implementing kernel-based semi-supervised learning algorithms in Julia, demonstrating strong analytical and technical capabilities.

Most recently I work in environmental compliance within a healthcare setting, where I collaborate with nursing staff and follow strict hygiene, infection control and privacy protocols. I bring meticulous documentation, compliance management, and process-improvement skills to every role.

I am reliable, detail-oriented and adaptable, with skills spanning Microsoft Office, R, Python (basic), PostgreSQL and Power BI, combined with experience in risk assessment, policy documentation and stakeholder collaboration.
