As an Economist at Queen’s University, I worked on data-intensive research projects that transformed historical and administrative records into structured datasets for economic analysis. My work supported research on Canadian trade patterns and U.S. government procurement by improving the speed, reliability, and usability of the underlying data.
- Delivered two data projects for research and policy analysis, including shortening a six-month ETL pipeline to three months by streamlining data ingestion and processing workflows.
- Transformed 5,000+ pages of scanned records into analysis-ready structured data using systematic data cleaning, standardization, and validation procedures.
- Built automated quality checks to improve data reliability and reduce errors before analysis.
- Synthesized patterns in Canadian trade data and U.S. government procurement contract data into clear findings for research and policy stakeholders.
- Contributed to the research data infrastructure needed to study trade, procurement, and regional economic outcomes.
