About

I am a data scientist and analyst professional with experience across consulting (financial services and banking), E-commerce, and Retail Commercial. I specialize in experimentation, machine learning, forecasting, and AI-driven personalization to deliver measurable business impact.

I have led A/B testing initiatives, applied machine learning and causal impact analysis to inform investment decisions, built sales, profit, and cost forecasting models, and defined customer segmentation strategies to support CRM initiatives. I have also worked on AI search ranking and recommendation solutions.

Outside of work, I am passionate about continuous learning and knowledge sharing through tech and business communities. I also write about AI experiments on Medium, using writing to sharpen both my analytical thinking and creativity.
