Mathematics with Computer Science Major

The World Bank Group

I worked with the World Bank’s Transport & ICT GP, focusing on its Smart Nation and Open Data initiatives. This gave me the opportunity to work on designing technology-enabled and data-driven methods for improving public service delivery and optimizing resource allocation. I researched how national development planning can be redirected using solution-oriented and technological approaches, developed strategies for improving emergency responses in transportation networks, and worked on using ICT tools for green growth and conflict-prevention.
