<p style="font-size: 14px; color:#666666; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: justify; text-justify: auto;">I’ve always loved asking ‘how?’ and ‘why?’ Since starting my journey as a data scientist, I’ve been able to answer ‘how?’ by developing tools to support my teammates, while answering ‘why?’ with analyses to support data driven decision making. I’m looking for a position where I can build a career using my skills to help my team and conduct meaningful analyses that inform business decisions and contribute to achieving company goals.</p>
