I am a detail-oriented and results-driven data science student with a strong foundation in statistical analysis, machine learning, and data-driven decision-making. With hands-on experience in Python, RStudio, SQL, and Tableau, I have applied my skills to a wide range of projects, including predictive modeling, time-series forecasting, and business analytics. My passion lies in uncovering actionable insights from complex datasets to solve real-world problems. I have successfully led projects related to stock market predictions, employee analytics, and market segmentation, leveraging advanced machine learning techniques and data visualization tools to drive strategic business decisions. As I approach my graduation in December 2024, I am eager to apply my expertise in a professional setting where I can continue to grow and contribute to data-driven initiatives. My goal is to help organizations harness the power of data to make informed, impactful decisions.
