My technical proficiency spans across multiple platforms and languages, including Python, R, Matlab, and SQL. Apart from these, I’m adept at developing cloud applications and creating interactive dashboards.

In addition to my professional pursuits, I am conducting several research projects such as developing food price indices by scraping web-based food price data daily; predicting GDP growth rates with tree-based ensemble machine learning models and dynamic factor models; identifying business cycle states using neural networks.
