Short Bio
My name is Yannick Silva, and I have a diverse background in economics, management, and data analysis. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Management Studies from the University of Southampton in the UK. During my studies, I gained practical experience in various domains, including energy efficiency, income data, banking, and fuel consumption, where I applied machine learning techniques such as logit models, K-means, cluster analysis, and dimension reduction models.
In addition to my data analysis skills, I am proficient in programming and have used Python for tasks such as data preprocessing, statistical analysis, algorithm selection, and model evaluation. I have also utilized Python to create various data visualizations, including word clouds, histograms, and heatmaps, which I have effectively presented in reports to non-technical management.
Excel has been a valuable tool in my finance-related work, where I have applied financial theories and concepts such as accounting, capital structure, investment policy, and bond and equity valuation. I have also conducted financial simulations, including Monte Carlo simulations, derivative modeling, and portfolio analysis.
During my internship at Banco da Africa Occidental (BAO), I gained experience in risk analysis and audit. I engaged with clients, assessed financial instruments, and effectively communicated with various departments to acquire necessary data. I also had responsibilities in compiling financial data, verifying credit dossiers, and participating in audit service missions.
As a co-founder and Vice President of the Institute for Global Health and Development (IGHD), I have developed strong skills in partnership management and business development. I have analyzed financial scopes, assessed risks, and contributed to proposal projects, such as the Women Entrepreneurship Change (WEChange) initiative. Additionally, I have been involved in preparing pitch decks for business accelerators/incubators.
Overall, I possess a strong combination of analytical, technical, and management skills, allowing me to excel in data analysis, finance, consulting, negotiation, and risk management. My attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and experience in both academic and professional settings make me a well-rounded professional ready to contribute to challenging projects and drive business success.
