What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth, innovation, and collaboration in data science.

I am a dedicated data scientist with a strong foundation in statistics and data analysis, currently pursuing my degree in Statistics at the University of Nairobi. My education has equipped me with robust analytical skills and hands-on experience with tools such as R and Stata, allowing me to make data-driven decisions in real-world contexts.

In addition to my academic background, I have completed a NanoDegree in Data Science from Moringa, where I engaged in intensive projects that honed my skills in data wrangling, exploratory analysis, and machine learning. I am proficient in Python, SQL, and various data science libraries, and I have a keen interest in developing personal machine learning projects that solve real-world problems.
