With over 10 years of experience in analytics and data science, I am passionate about using data to drive changes that make customers happy, deepen relationships with brands, and add value. I have a MBA from UCLA Anderson and a Master of Data Science from the University of Chicago, which equip me with the technical and business skills to tackle complex problems and deliver impactful solutions.I have successfully led and managed teams of analysts and data scientists across various domains and industries, including insurance, gaming/entertainment, management consulting, and banking/financial services. I have collaborated with multiple stakeholders and departments to align data initiatives with strategic goals, create and implement data pipelines and models, and communicate insights and recommendations. Some of my notable achievements include improving a matching-making algorithm by 5% for a gaming platform, creating a retention model that gave a 6 ppt lift on identifying customers who are likely to churn, and building a product recommendation engine (which additional coverage product is best for person X?) that won a competition.I am customer-centric and always advocate for the end user. I enjoy programming and critical thinking, and I thrive on challenges and celebrate "aha" moments. I am also a team player and a mentor, who believes in teaching correct principles and empowering others to succeed. I am looking for exciting opportunities to leverage my data science/analytics expertise and leadership skills to create value and impact within financial services or entertainment that have an emphasis on tech.
