Elsie-Muhumuza/README.md

Hello, I'm Elsie Muhumuza! πŸ‘‹

A highly analytical professional with a background in Civil Engineering and specialized training in Data Science and Machine Learning, driven by a passion for solving real-world challenges with data. Experienced in applying machine learning, predictive modeling, and data visualization to solve real-world problems, with a strong record of managing complex projects and delivering actionable insights.


πŸ’‘ My Expertise

  • Data Analysis & Visualization: Transforming raw data into actionable insights using Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, and Seaborn.
  • Machine Learning & Predictive Modeling: Building and evaluating models (classification, regression, decision trees, random forests) for real-world applications.
  • Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering: Cleaning data, handling missing values, and preparing datasets for robust analysis.
  • Collaboration & Reporting: Documenting workflows and sharing insights clearly via Jupyter/Colab and visual reports.

πŸ”§ Skills & Tools

  • Languages: Python, SQL
  • Data Analysis: Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn
  • Machine Learning: Scikit-learn, Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Classification & Regression Models
  • Data Handling: Jupyter Notebook, Google Colab, Excel, CSV/JSON handling
  • Version Control: Git, GitHub
  • Currently Learning: TensorFlow, Keras, Deep Learning

πŸ“‚ Featured Projects

Explore some of my work where I apply data science principles to diverse challenges:

  • Loan Eligibility Prediction β€” Built a machine learning model for Dream Housing Finance to automate loan eligibility decisions. The optimized Random Forest Classifier reached 85% accuracy, streamlining approvals and improving decision reliability.
  • Customer_Segmentation_Analysis β€” Applied unsupervised machine learning (K-Means, Hierarchical Clustering) to segment a credit card company's customer base into distinct profiles. This analysis successfully identified a critical "High-Risk Defaulter" segment, enabling the development of targeted risk mitigation strategies.
  • Footwear Sales Data Analysis β€” Performed visual analytics on sales data to identify key trends and patterns for a footwear company. Found top-performing brands that generated 60%+ of net profit, guiding inventory allocation and marketing strategies.
  • Global Literacy Rates Analysis β€” Conducted an in-depth data analysis to uncover regional disparities and gender gaps in global literacy, providing strategic recommendations for a non-profit organization's targeted educational interventions.

🎯 Continuous Growth

I am committed to continuous learning and expanding my expertise in data science and machine learning:

  • Publishing impactful ML projects on GitHub (e.g., loan prediction, literacy analysis, customer segmentation).
  • Practicing end-to-end workflows: Data Collection β†’ EDA β†’ Feature Engineering β†’ Model Building β†’ Evaluation β†’ Insights.
  • Expanding into Deep Learning & Neural Networks with TensorFlow and Keras.
  • Strengthening SQL for Data Science for advanced querying and data manipulation.
