What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, encourages innovation, and values data-driven decision-making.

I am a data professional with a strong foundation in Python, SQL, and machine learning, dedicated to leveraging data to drive actionable insights and business growth. My recent experience as a Data Science Project Intern at CodeAlpha allowed me to develop predictive analytics models that increased forecasting accuracy by 15% and reduced inventory waste by 10%. I thrive on transforming complex data into clear visualizations and strategic recommendations.

In addition to my internship, I co-founded a custom t-shirt business where I led operations and data analytics. I utilized Python and Excel for demand forecasting and developed interactive Power BI dashboards to visualize product trends. My academic projects, including customer churn prediction and sentiment analysis, have further honed my skills in data analysis and machine learning, achieving impressive accuracy rates and delivering valuable insights.
