What I'm looking for

I am seeking a Data Scientist/Data Analyst role in a technology-driven organisation where I can apply ML, BI and analytics to solve business problems, work on impactful projects, and grow in a collaborative, data-focused team.

I am an aspiring Data Scientist transitioning from extensive aviation and cruise operations into data science and analytics, with a Bachelor’s in Computer Science, a postgraduate program in Data Science & Generative AI from IIIT Bangalore, and an M.Sc. in Data Science commencing April 2026. I bring hands-on proficiency in Python, SQL, Power BI, advanced Excel, machine learning, deep learning, NLP and Generative AI, and have applied these skills across entertainment analytics, demand forecasting, credit risk and fraud detection projects.

My projects include end-to-end predictive modeling, interactive BI dashboards, and production-style analyses that delivered measurable insights — for example, a hospitality revenue dashboard that revealed high-value segments and cancellation leakage, and fraud detection models that produced an AUC of 0.93 and competitive accuracy/F1 scores. I translate business problems into analytics solutions and communicate findings to drive data-driven decisions.
