What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my data analysis skills to drive impactful solutions.

I am a Business Analyst with a strong foundation in data science and a passion for solving complex problems. My experience as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Northeastern University has honed my ability to communicate technical concepts effectively, guiding students through hands-on lab sessions in Python-based machine learning. I thrive in collaborative environments, ensuring that learners from diverse backgrounds grasp key data science principles.

Previously, I worked as an Assistant System Engineer at Tata Consultancy Services, where I contributed to building data warehouses and developing Java applications that automated reporting processes. My efforts improved efficiency for the compliance team and empowered business leaders with timely insights. I am particularly proud of my work on ETL flows and custom report generation, which enhanced operational efficiency by 20%.
