Sobre
I work on improving real-world systems by integrating statistical modeling, data engineering, and applied analytics to address operational problems with direct business impact. My focus is on understanding complex processes, identifying key drivers, and converting data into decisions that increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve overall system performance. My background combines statistical training with hands-on implementation in Python, R, and SQL, along with experience in data engineering and backend development. I build data pipelines, automated models, and analytical systems designed not just for analysis, but for continuous use in operational decision-making.
