About

I’m a final-year Economics student at MacEwan University, passionate about using data to understand real-world policy and sustainability challenges. My capstone research explores how carbon taxes impact employment, wages, and emissions across Scandinavian countries using econometric analysis. Alongside my academic work, I’ve built experience in sales and business development, strengthening my communication and strategic thinking skills. I enjoy bridging analytical thinking with practical decision-making and am always looking for opportunities to apply economics in meaningful ways. Currently expanding my skills in R, Excel, and Power BI, and I hope to work in a Business consulting position or Analyst position of some kind.
