Kafilat stands out with brilliance, passion, grit, and results all in one individual. When I worked with Kafilat at a time when our team was new and rapidly evolving, Kafilat was a reliable energy on the team and demonstrated an ability to inspire others to be their best. She considered nothing unattainable, all she needed was a brief and one could confidently consider the job done. Her enthusiasm and willingness to seek solutions to the next problem is evident in her ability to break down complexities, design ingenious processes, and effectively manage iterative ones. With an ability to learn quickly and deliver to time, Kafilat is an immensely valuable member on any team.

Dissertation Internship
-
Jul 2009 - Sep 2009
My very first foray into the world of data analytics was my summer internship at the United Kingdom's Office for National Statistics. As part of my dissertation for my Masters degree, I was required to help the ONS, who were, at the time, planning to conduct a national census. They needed to figure out what the staffing requirement of the census field operations. With an array of constraints and requirements, it was the largest and most complex model I ever built. It was scary, exhilarating and so rewarding. I fell in love with analytics and modeling and haven't looked back since. Show less
