Quantitative finance graduate with ESG expertise and econometric modeling skills.
TunisiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a quantitative finance graduate with a strong focus on ESG principles and hands-on experience in econometric modeling. My academic journey at Tunisia Polytechnic School has equipped me with a solid foundation in quantitative economics and finance, where I excelled in courses such as Data Science and Financial Machine Learning. I am passionate about sustainability analytics and have developed a keen understanding of regulatory frameworks and data-driven policy analysis.
During my internship as an Inventory Control Analyst at Day Pharmacy, I successfully audited medical inventory, contributing to waste reduction and resource efficiency. My master’s thesis involved a rigorous Difference-in-Differences analysis on the financial impact of ESG strategies in the oil and gas sector, providing actionable insights for investors. Additionally, my virtual experiences with leading firms like EY and Oliver Wyman have further honed my skills in ESG due diligence and climate change analysis, preparing me for impactful roles in the finance and sustainability sectors.
