    OPEN TO FULL-TIME JOB!!
    Recruit me :p

    I love to use a little alliteration to say that I have demystified Data Science at the University of Delaware.

    Concurrently, I undertook a year-long internship as an Associate in the Credit and Data Analytics department at Barclays Bank in Wilmington, Delaware. I was part of the Data Strategy team, focusing on migrating data and analytics tasks to the AWS cloud. My primary skills in this role include Python, AWS, BASH, and SQL.
    My passion lies in the specialized and allied fields of statistics and I love nothing more than a good game of Duplicate Bridge - the ultimate strategic card game.

    I'll write blog posts about my projects and other fun stuff here.

    Stay tuned!

  • About me

    As a data enthusiast with a passion for turning raw data into valuable insights and solutions, I am delighted to finish a Master's degree in Statistics at the University of Delaware.
    Also, I loved my cloud computing and data analytics job at Barclays.

    Before starting my graduate studies, I worked at the Payment Systems Department of the central bank of Bangladesh for three years. In this role, I used data analysis and machine learning methods to help make policy decisions about mobile financial services and the payment card industry in Bangladesh. I also have professional experience in data-driven business consulting and software development.

    I am passionate about turning data into business value, and my dedication is reflected in my credentials, which include a CS degree, an MBA, and over five years of work experience.

    I am also passionate about Duplicate Bridge, the most statistical and challenging strategy card game.

    I also like Ping Pong, and writing short stories.
