About

👋🏽 Hello! Thank you for visiting my LinkedIn profile! I have delivered research outputs and project coordination with organizations including the World Bank Group, the Inter-American Development Bank, and the Insight Research Center for Data Analytics. My international experience spans multiple countries and encompasses projects in areas such as social development, health, climate finance, and performance evaluation. I hold an MSc in Data Analytics from University College Dublin, where I developed practical expertise in Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, SQL, Tableau, and NVivo. I apply quantitative and qualitative methodologies to clean and harmonize large datasets, build KPI reporting workflows, and generate evidence-based insights. In parallel, I enjoy coordinating projects and deliverables while engaging with stakeholders to ensure measurable and sustainable results. What drives me is applying data to create meaningful impact. I perform data analytics to close gaps, integrate diverse perspectives to ask better questions, and inform decisions with evidence to improve outcomes and drive change. Let’s connect!
