What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, encourages continuous learning, and allows me to contribute to meaningful projects.

I am a detail-oriented Data Analyst with over a year of experience in conducting research and translating findings into comprehensive reports. My proficiency in tools such as Excel, SQL, and Power BI enables me to clean data, identify patterns, and build insightful reports. I am enthusiastic about transforming complex data into clear and actionable insights, which has allowed me to achieve measurable success in collaborating with cross-functional teams and delivering projects on time.

In my recent role as a Data Analyst Intern at NEMA, I assisted in the collection and analysis of geospatial data to support search and rescue operations. I created maps and visualizations for situational awareness and resource allocation, ensuring data integrity and timely updates during operations. My volunteer experience at AITECH further honed my analytical skills, where I analyzed operational datasets and assisted in building reports and dashboards for internal decision-making.

Currently, I am pursuing a Master’s in Public Health, which complements my background in Human Physiology. I am eager to leverage my analytical skills and public health knowledge to contribute to impactful projects in the data analysis field.
