What I'm looking for

I’m eager to use data insights to support compliance and risk management, and to contribute to projects that apply data to business challenges.

At SCI Wealth (Pty) Ltd, I perform KYC assessments for new and existing clients and conduct regulatory risk assessments. I also manage client data in vTiger and provide reports on the UN sanctions list to FIA.

At AHollard Insurance Botswana, I supported the IFRS17 project and developed Excel models for actuarial data analysis. I also assisted with data-processing automation and audited data to improve the reliability of financial models.

At Empirica Analysis, I supported actuarial analysis and contributed to modeling for calculations and financial forecasts. I also researched competitor products and contributed to critical illness product enhancements.

My projects include contributing to a quantitative study on data protection in digital financial services and researching AI-based loan-default risk prediction for pensioners. I’ve also worked on NLP research using Setswana datasets and machine learning.
