About

I am a data analyst with a background in Computational Social Science, specializing in statistical analysis, data visualization, and the interpretation of complex datasets. My work focuses on turning data into clear insights that support strategic decision-making.

With a foundation in sociology and survey research, I bring a strong interest in research design and methodology, including both quantitative and qualitative approaches to data collection and analysis. This perspective helps me frame analytical questions thoughtfully and interpret data within broader social and organizational contexts.

From designing research and managing analytical workflows to performing statistical analysis and communicating results to diverse stakeholders, I bring experience across the full project lifecycle. By combining technical expertise with strong project coordination and communication skills, I aim to ensure that data-driven work is both rigorous and practical.
