Credit Strategy @ Barclays | Risk Analytics

About

With over 8 years of experience in data analysis, I am passionate about transforming data into insights and solutions that help drive business growth and performance. As an AVP of Credit Data Analytics at Barclays, I leverage my skills in SAS, Python, Oracle, and Hive to develop and implement credit risk, acquisition, and cross-sell strategies for the loan portfolio. I am motivated by the mission of Barclays to create opportunities for people and businesses, and I value diversity, collaboration, and innovation in my work. In my current role, I have successfully grown the Barclays loan portfolio from 0 to 1 billion, and I am targeting another 1 billion in the next year. I use advanced analytical techniques, such as machine learning, optimization, and A/B testing, to generate pricing and cross-sell strategies that increase origination, retention, and profitability. I also provide first-line defense for credit risk management, ensuring compliance with regulatory and internal policies.
