What I'm looking for

I seek a data science role where I can apply ML, analytics, and visualization to drive revenue, automate reporting, set KPIs, and collaborate cross-functionally.

I am a professional data scientist with a strong background in statistical analysis, machine learning, and data visualization. I focus on turning complex data into actionable insights that support strategic decisions.

At Texol Energy I implemented fuel card analytics that improved customer retention by 35% and reduced fraudulent transactions by 50%. I also automated reporting workflows and delivered dashboards that increased reporting efficiency by 40% and supported a 40% revenue uplift through targeted promotions.

Previously at H&F Limited I streamlined data-gathering processes to save an estimated 50 hours per month, built dynamic dashboards that improved operational efficiency by 10%, and developed predictive models that increased profitability by 5%. I collaborate closely with stakeholders to set KPIs and translate metrics into business impact.

I work with Python, R, SQL, SPSS, Excel, Stata, Power BI and Tableau, and I bring a pragmatic, collaborative approach to project management, data validation, and improving data collection accuracy. I am motivated by solving problems and delivering measurable results through analytics and automation.
