About

I am a sociological researcher with experience in data-driven policy analysis and community impact, particularly in the areas of health, education, and animal welfare. I am completing my Master’s in Sociology this term and currently pursuing a Master’s in Applied Information and Data Science as well as a professional certificate in data science. This combination of sociology and data science uniquely positions me to bridge the gap between social research and data analytics, allowing me to apply cutting-edge methods to address pressing social issues. My work spans sectors such as education, healthcare, and agricultural policy, where I have collaborated with stakeholders to develop actionable insights and evidence-based recommendations. I am passionate about using research and data to drive innovation and support organizations in creating meaningful social change.
