Background

About Natasha Derrick

I’m a data scientist with a background in chemical engineering, known for building structured solutions to complex, high-stakes problems. Whether designing eco-friendly explosives or optimizing data systems with AI/ML, I bring a unique blend of technical depth, cross-domain experience, and an unshakable focus on outcomes. I am currently completing a MicroMasters in Mechanical Engineering through MIT, with a focus on manufacturing and systems design, heavily oriented around statistical analyses and business processes. My professional background spans data science, analytics, academic research, and engineering consultancy, with an emphasis on high-impact, data-driven solutions across diverse industries. I have supported research publication efforts in academic journals, collaborated on multi-disciplinary technical projects, and continue to expand my certifications in data and cloud platforms, including Microsoft Azure and Power BI. I’m interested in opportunities that challenge me technically, strategically, or philosophically (preferably all three at once). If you’re looking for someone who can build, optimize, translate, and occasionally solve the unsolvable — but mostly build — we can talk.
