What I'm looking for

I aim to transform complex datasets into actionable insights, drive innovation, and support strategic decision-making.

At IFS, I contributed to data-driven insights and solutions, using machine learning, statistical modeling, and data visualization to support actionable business intelligence.

At Zuellig Pharma, I worked in the Commercial Analytics and Data Solutions team. I prepared, cleansed, mapped, and validated data, maintained dashboards, and translated business requirements into analyses with clients.

I also supported client onboarding, user training, data queries, and issue analysis at Zuellig Pharma. I documented workflows and developed training materials to support knowledge sharing and new team member onboarding.

I completed an MSc. in Data Science & Artificial Intelligence at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura and a BSc. in Industrial Statistics and Mathematical Finance at the University of Colombo, where I received the gold medal for highest competency in the degree programme.
