What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a statistician/data analyst role where I can build practical statistical models, design questionnaires, and deliver clear reporting for research and operational decisions, collaborating closely with teams.

I design statistical solutions that realistically match stated objectives—building methodologies, models, efficient reporting, questionnaires, and measurement instruments. I also learn and teach efficiently, communicate assertively, and work well in teams, stepping into leadership when needed.

My experience spans part-time statistical support for active research projects, teaching statistics across non-statistics programs, and hands-on consulting for public-facing studies—developing methodologies, analyzing data, and producing reports. I’ve also contributed to indicator generation from relevant variables and historical data, reviewed policy criteria in a committee setting, and supported data collection work through questionnaire and interview methodology development.
