Kennedy Maina - Data Scientist & Statistician

Data Scientist Bridging Software & Statistics

I am a Data Scientist with over 3 years of hands-on experience, well-polished in software development, data collection, analysis, and presentation. My core expertise lies in bridging the fields of IT and statistical science: from engineering intuitive field data-gathering instruments (CAPI, POS, and web forms) to developing automated pipelines, database architectures, and effortless real-time analytics.

By combining rigorous statistical theory (hypothesis testing, regression modeling, sampling design) with modern software engineering (TypeScript, Python, R, SQL, PostgreSQL), I build robust tools that empower organizations and businesses to capture clean data, automate operations, and present insights with clarity.
