My name is Christiana Ukut. I work with a microfinance bank as a contact center.
 

2. What were some of the key factors that led you to choose our Data Science program, and how did it align with your career goals?

A major factor is to switch to Tech because I have a passion for it, and I see people around me working with advanced Excel and visualizing data. This is where I got my motivation from.
 

3. How did the Utiva Data Science program shape your understanding and skills in the field?
 

My skills have been sharpened because my knowledge is now much higher than before. I am better than before when it comes to my skills. 80% of the skills gotten from utiva.  Still striving to be an expert in the future.

Yes, am proud of a project called Capstone, which analyzes data sales trends by using Excel, Power Bi, etc to work on it.

 

 

5.. How did the program's curriculum and training prepare you for your current role?

The trainers are good, especially Damilare Ojo. He is exceptional. He is a good teacher and trainer. I learned a lot from him. I enjoyed mostly Excel and Power BI. SQL and Python, too are fine but I just need to burn more candles.
