Background

About Sara E. Rodriguez

Hello there! I’m Sara, a curious mind and passionate Senior Data Scientist with 7+ years of experience turning complex data into simple, actionable solutions. From optimizing battery energy storage systems in Sweden to building sales prediction models for U.S. public sector clients, I love using data to solve real-world problems and drive meaningful change. My toolbox? It includes time series forecasting, machine learning, cloud-native pipelines (hello, AWS!), and good old-fashioned collaboration. Whether it’s automating ROI calculators or developing real-time analytics systems, I enjoy building things that make life easier for both teams and end users. Beyond the tech, I wear a few more hats—I'm an Associate Professor of Data Modeling, a published researcher in Support Vector Regression, and an occasional conference speaker. Teaching, mentoring, and learning from others is something I genuinely enjoy. What gets me excited? Challenges that combine data, business, and creativity. I thrive on projects where I can dive deep into the numbers, work with cross-functional teams, and bring ideas to life—especially when they have a tangible impact. If you're into data, innovation, or just geeking out over the latest machine learning breakthrough, let’s connect!
