Summary
I am currently pursuing the Master of Business Analytics (MBAN) at the University of British Columbia, a 12-month program designed to develop advanced skills across the full analytics spectrum—from data management to prescriptive analytics—while emphasizing data-driven business decision-making. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science with a minor in Commerce from UBC, where I built a strong foundation in analytical thinking, problem-solving, and understanding of business concepts.
To strengthen my technical expertise, I completed the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate, gaining hands-on experience with tools such as Excel, R, and SQL. This training, combined with my academic background, has equipped me to approach complex problems with both quantitative rigor and strategic insight.
My goal is to leverage this blend of business knowledge and advanced analytics skills to secure an analyst role where I can deliver meaningful insights, support informed decision-making, and help organizations drive sustainable growth.
