Work Experience

Data Science | Analyst at Arona-Chemie Co
January 1, 2020 - Present
Conducted in-depth data analysis on livestock feed consumption and nutritional outcomes, identifying trends used to improve product formulations and operational decision-making. Built predictive models in Python and R to forecast livestock growth and feed requirements, contributing to a 15% reduction in feed expenses. Designed automated ETL pipelines and reporting tools to deliver production-ready analytics and dashboards. Applied advanced statistical methods (ANOVA, regression) to evaluate interventions and ensure robust, explainable insights. Developed generative AI solutions (prompt engineering, RAG) to automate routine analyses and tailor operational recommendations. Collaborated with veterinarians, agronomists, and technical teams to translate outputs into deployment-ready workflows.
Data Science | Analyst at Kajeh Art Institute
January 1, 2022 - January 1, 2024
Designed and implemented a comprehensive, queryable database for historical film archives, enabling structured intake and management of metadata. Cleaned and structured large archival datasets using R and SQL, establishing validation rules and data models to support reliable search and reporting. Developed a metadata framework to tag content by genre, era, and director, improving discoverability and enabling curated admin views and exports.
College Instructor at Conestoga College – ON
September 1, 2019 - December 1, 2024
