Summary
Christina Sousa is a Senior Consultant in Analytic Science with seven years of experience building statistical and risk models for insurance pricing, underwriting, and large-scale forecasting. She pairs rigorous academic training (MS in Statistics, BS in Probability & Statistics) with hands-on implementation across Python, R, H2O, and cloud platforms like AWS and EC2 to deliver production-ready ETL and modeling pipelines. At Nationwide she has led teams and cross-functional projects that translate complex time-series and XGBoost models into business outcomes, and she has experience scaling workflows with Teradata, Redshift, and Airflow. Previously at Karat and research institutions she applied NLP and custom statistical methods to practical problems, contributing to published research during her internship at Scripps. A technical problem-solver who leads with math, she also brings an unusual creative edge as a touring heavy metal drummer who’s recorded and released full-length albums. Based in Columbus, Ohio, she is an advocate for diversity and inclusion and combines deep technical craft with clear stakeholder communication.
