## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm seeking a data-focused role where I can analyse financial and operational data, build actionable reporting and forecasting insights, improve processes, and support business strategy, risk management, customer retention, and revenue growth.
```

## About

```text
I've managed financial and operational performance for residential properties at Market Day (Pty) Ltd, supporting 50+ tenants while monitoring revenue, rental collections, budgets, compliance, and service delivery.

I produced monthly financial performance reports, analysed tenant payment behaviour and revenue trends, and managed annual property budgets exceeding P300,000. Through vendor negotiations and financial monitoring, I improved cost efficiency and supported income stability.

My data science research includes stock market forecasting using S&P 500, DAX, and FTSE 100 data alongside sentiment analysis with VADER, BERT, and LSTM. I also improved image-processing algorithm performance by 25% through noise reduction and filter tuning in Python.

With a Master's in Data Science and a background in Mathematics of Finance, I bring quantitative analysis, reporting, stakeholder engagement, and process improvement to data-driven decisions.
