I hold a PhD in Applied Statistics, with a specialization in Mathematical Econometric Modeling. Since 2014, I have been teaching in the field of statistics quantitative methods, where I support students in developing their analytical skills and understanding advanced statistical methods.As a researcher, my work focuses on statistical analysis and its application in various fields, including public health, economics, and finance.Passionate about teaching, I place great importance on making statistical concepts accessible and applicable to real-world challenges, while emphasizing the importance of quantitative methods in decision-making in health, economics, and finance.
