About

I am a detail-oriented Fraud Analyst with experience in payments, risk analysis, transaction review, and banking operations. My current role has strengthened my analytical thinking, attention to detail, problem-solving, and ability to make risk-based decisions while working within defined policies and controls. I am now expanding my expertise into financial analysis, financial modelling, forecasting, and business performance analysis. I have a strong interest in understanding how financial data can be translated into meaningful insights for better business and cash-flow decisions. I am actively developing my Excel, accounting, three-statement modelling, scenario analysis, and forecasting skills. I bring a combination of risk-focused analytical experience, a strong learning mindset, and an interest in using data to solve business problems. I am particularly interested in working in a hands-on environment where I can take ownership, learn from experienced finance professionals, and grow into a broader financial planning and analysis role.

Projects

Google CyberShield Sentinel(Network data-exfiltration detection prototype)

Build a defensive prototype that detects unusual outbound data transfers using network metadata, without collecting actual private files or credentials. 1. Analyse sample network logs or PCAP files. 2. Establish normal traffic patterns using connection duration and bytes sent/received. 3. Flag unusual outbound transfers and repeated connections to unfamiliar destinations. 4. Display alerts, severity, supporting evidence, and investigation notes in a dashboard. Suggested stack: Python + Zeek + Pandas + Streamlit. Zeek can analyse saved packet captures and produce structured network logs that your project can process.
