## About me

I am a Senior Data Scientist with extensive experience in developing mathematical models and optimizing trading algorithms, primarily using Python and its scientific libraries such as numpy, pandas, and scikit-learn. My work has directly contributed to increased trading profitability and enhanced data-driven decision-making processes. I have a strong background in statistical analysis and data visualization, having authored comprehensive reports using tools like Tableau and Oracle BusinessObjects.

Throughout my career, I have played a pivotal role in shaping regional government strategies through advanced statistical modeling and demographic forecasting. I am skilled in building and maintaining data pipelines from various databases including MongoDB and PostgreSQL, ensuring data quality and accessibility for strategic planning and policy evaluation.

My expertise extends to algorithm development in R and Python, where I have engineered efficient sampling methods and innovative data cleaning techniques. I have also contributed to academic research, publishing several papers on mortality modeling and policy evaluation in reputable journals and conferences.

In addition to my professional work, I have experience as a contract professor, teaching descriptive statistics, probability calculus, and inferential statistics to university students. I have developed R-Shiny applications to facilitate statistical learning, demonstrating my commitment to education and knowledge sharing.

I am passionate about technical problem-solving, systems thinking, and continuous learning. My interdisciplinary collaboration skills and strong communication abilities enable me to work effectively across teams and mentor others. I am motivated by challenges that require innovative solutions and enjoy engaging with complex data to uncover actionable insights.

I hold a PhD in Circular Economy with a focus on mortality modeling, and I graduated with honors in statistical and actuarial sciences as well as business statistics and computer science. My academic and professional journey reflects a deep commitment to advancing statistical science and applying it to real-world problems.
