About

As a Senior Data Analyst at iFood, a leading food delivery company, I leverage my skills in Python, Databricks, and Tableau to enhance user engagement and experience by implementing and validating app changes through A/B tests. I also monitor and analyze key business metrics, such as user retention, sales, and access data, and propose new testing initiatives to optimize them.

Before joining iFood, I was a Data Scientist at Visagio, a technology and management consulting firm, where I contributed to successful projects across diverse sectors, such as retail, banking, and energy. I gained experience in time series forecasting, classification, and regression, as well as participated in the development of scalable NLP tools, such as a Python library for AI model management. Additionally, I have over 5 years of experience in data science research, having engaged in two scientific projects related to machine learning. I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence at USP, where I also obtained my Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics Engineering.
