<div class="container flow-text">
<p>
I’m a Data Scientist and Data Engineer with a unique journey from a quantitative social science Ph.D. background into the dynamic world of data.
</p>
<p>
My passion for uncovering insights and solving complex problems led me to fully embrace the technical challenges of data science, machine learning, and engineering. I strive not only to build models but also to equip myself with the skills needed to take full ownership of projects—designing pipelines, automating workflows, and delivering impactful, end-to-end solutions.
</p>
<p>
At The Sunwater Institute, I designed and optimized data pipelines to improve efficiency and deliver reliable, real-time insights. This included building scalable ELT pipelines, automating workflows with AWS, and developing user-friendly data applications that streamlined processes and improved accessibility.
</p>
<p>
Coming from a social science background, my journey into data has been fueled by a constant desire to learn and grow. I’m driven to explore my full potential, combining everything I’ve learned with a vision for making data accessible, actionable, and transformative.

<ul>
<li><b>Tools:</b> SQL · Databases · MySQL </li>
<li>The database aims to serve people interested in US-China trade war and its effect on US-China trade volumes, and the impact on US multinational corporations (MNCs) which depend on global value chains (GVC) heavily.</li>
<li>The database provides mainly two types of data. The first type is the macroscopic data. Specifically, this database provides US-China monthly trade data by commodity, the volume and percentage of products under tariff data between US and China. It also contains the data about US annual trade with all countries and the basic development indicator information of these countries, including GDP, population, tariff rate in general, and tariff rate for manufactured products. The second type of data is the microcosmic data about MNCs, including S&P 500 company list with detailed information, such as stock symbol, location, sector, industry, etc., S&P 500 company stock price time-series data, fortune 500 company list and their annual revenues data, fortune 500 company stock price time-series data, top 20 companies list based on their level of sale in China, and top 20 companies list based on their share of sale in China.</li>
<li>People could utilize this dataset to explore how U.S.-China trade relations change in the 21st century, the connection between U.S.-China trade and their tariff change, the differences in the tendencies of US trade with different companies, how U.S.-China trade relations affect U.S. multinational corporations (MNCs).</li>
