Data Analyst and Economist delivering fiscal analytics, credit risk insights, and AI model evaluation.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Economist and Data Analyst with over five years of specialized experience across data visualisation, fiscal analytics, credit risk management, and AI model evaluation. I combine Python, SQL, Power BI, and advanced econometric modelling to turn complex financial information into clear, actionable decisions.
At The IGR Initiative, I lead the design of data-driven frameworks for Generated Revenue analysis across Nigerian subnational governments. I harmonise multi-source financial data into a unified digital hub for accurate forecasting and anomaly detection, and I build interactive Power BI dashboards that communicate real-time IGR metrics, budget execution rates, and early-warning fiscal signals. I also develop debt sustainability assessments and fiscal stress tests, then translate results into policy briefs, training modules, and reform recommendations.
As a Business Analyst for AI Training & LLM Evaluation with Turing (remote, contract), I contributed to fine-tuning large language models by generating, reviewing, and evaluating analytical prompts and domain-specific test cases. I validated factual accuracy of AI-generated content and provided structured quality feedback to improve model reasoning and coherence.
Earlier, I served as a Credit Risk Officer at REX Microfinance Bank, where I conducted credit analysis across SME, public-sector, cashback, and micro-loan portfolios while monitoring daily performance and strengthening NPL discipline. I’ve also built end-to-end data science workflows as a Data Scientist Intern at Lantid Creative (remote), reinforcing how I collaborate, document, and communicate results to leadership.
