I love telling stories and creating impact through data. And with the abundance of data available today, there is so much that data science can do to optimize businesses by objectively informing crucial decisions. With only three prerequisites to problem solving: knowing the problem, the data, and the science. Where do I fit in the field?- With 3+ years of experience as a data science consultant, I have partnered with Fortune 500 companies to solve multiple commercial problems that their businesses face;- part of my job included dissecting the problem and diving into the complexities of structured and unstructured datasets;- my primary expertise lies in implementing machine learning models to harness data and generate actionable recommendations that can create business impact; and- I worked actively to craft and communicate the results in a way that is understandable and effective for all business stakeholders.While I enjoy data-driven problem solving, what I enjoy even more is solving it with a team of like-minded individuals. Having worked as a team player and a leader with diverse technical teams, I can safely say that some of the most enriching and innovative solutions are born by sharing varied perspectives.I am happy to meet new people and exchange ideas. Outside work, I express my ardent love for foodand different cuisines through my food blog on Instagram.
