What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute analytical, organizational, and evidence-based decision-making skills in financial, administrative, or strategic planning teams where I can create value and continue developing.

I'm contributing to a PICE research project evaluating how university scholarships affect academic performance and dropout rates, using causal inference and Propensity Score Matching.

I clean, process, and analyze datasets in Stata and R, prepare empirical reports, and present findings for applied research dissemination. As a Teaching Assistant in Inferential Statistics at Universidad Nacional de Tucumán, I support students, manage assessment databases, and help monitor academic performance.

I'm also developing organizational data science skills through SQL, Python, Power BI, Data Studio, and Advanced Excel, with interests in financial, administrative, and strategic planning environments.
