About

Ever since I took my first economics class, I’ve been fascinated by how data can tell the story behind human behavior and influence decisions that shape communities. Waking up every day excited to analyze complex problems and translate them into actionable insights is what drives me. During my time at the University of Cincinnati and in professional roles across education and finance, I developed strong analytical and problem-solving skills. I built econometric and predictive models, conducted credit risk analyses, automated reporting processes, and created interactive dashboards to communicate insights to non-technical stakeholders. I also gained experience managing teams, mentoring students, and guiding research staff in delivering high-quality, data-driven results. Currently, I work as an Economic Data Research Analyst, leading economic impact analyses, developing state and county-level forecasts, and applying advanced modeling using Python, R, STATA, and SPSS. I’ve learned to balance technical rigor with actionable insights, ensuring that research findings directly inform policy, financial planning, and strategic decision-making. I’m passionate about pursuing roles as a Research Analyst (Economist), Financial Data Analyst, or Economic Researcher, where I can leverage my expertise in forecasting, econometrics, financial modeling, and data visualization to support data-driven strategies and influence impactful economic decisions. I’m always eager to connect with fellow economists, data analysts, and professionals in finance and policy. Feel free to reach out or connect to discuss economic research, data analysis, or potential collaboration opportunities.
