What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Data Scientist student at ExploreAI Academy, set to complete my program in December 2024. With a BSc in Chemistry and Applied Mathematics, complemented by a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, I possess a robust technical and educational background. My experience includes volunteering at Benedictine Hospital, where I supported medical staff and participated in community health initiatives, showcasing my commitment to applying my skills in real-world scenarios.
In my professional journey, I have gained practical experience as a Graduate Trainee - Chemical Analyst and Incident Investigator at Engen Refinery. Here, I conducted laboratory analyses to ensure quality and safety standards while collaborating with the environmental department to maintain compliance with regulations. My technical skills encompass data analysis, machine learning, and programming, with proficiency in Python, SQL, and data visualization tools like PowerBI.
I am currently enhancing my cloud computing knowledge through the AWS Cloud Practitioner course at SAND Academy. I am eager to leverage my skills to tackle real-world data challenges and contribute to innovative solutions in the field of data science.
