Hellođź‘‹
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Development Economics at the University Clermont Auvergne and a Data Scientist from the École Nationale de la Statistique et de l’Analyse de l’Information (ENSAI-Rennes). I am particularly interested in nutrition and health issues in developing countries, with a special focus on using machine learning techniques to address these challenges. My favorite letter in the alphabet is and my favorite animal is (I actually only swear by these two tools!). I strongly believe in the power of open science which is why I have made the replication codes for some of my projects available on my Github account. In my free time, I enjoy playing football, running and learning new skills online.

During my current PhD position, I have had the privilege of serving as a teacher assistant where I have been actively engaged in facilitating tutorial sessions for students in the fields of statistics and probabilities. My course load includes:
-Introduction to R Programming: this 8-hour course is designed for Health Economics students to develop essential data analysis and visualization skills using R and RStudio. We covered topics such as: * Fundamentals of R and RStudio (data types, importing data, basic manipulations); * Data wrangling with tidyverse (filtering, transforming, and combining datasets); * Data visualization with ggplot2 (creating and customizing professional graphics); * Real-world applications in Health Economics (COVID-19, blood storage, medical data analysis). 📚 Course materials are provided in an R Markdown book format here for interactive learning.

This paper examines the impact of armed conflict, specifically the Boko Haram conflict in Nigeria, on children’s nutritional outcomes. It also investigates how maternal bargaining power can mitigate these effects. The findings suggest that children born to women with low bargaining power are more adversely affected by the conflict highlighting the importance of policies to enhance female bargaining power in conflict settings.
