Summary
Morena Rivato is a Ph.D. fellow and data scientist with 10 years of experience turning large, messy datasets into actionable insights using R, Python, SQL and machine learning. Based at Aarhus University, her research and practice span the full data lifecycle—data integration, web scraping and APIs, text mining/NLP, causal inference and interactive Shiny visualizations—bridging academic rigor with applied analytics. She combines econometrics and statistical modeling with modern ML and deep learning techniques to support automated decision-making and clear, reproducible analysis. A multilingual economist by training (summa cum laude BSc) who progressed through Business Intelligence to a PhD in Innovation, she’s equally comfortable teaching and presenting at conferences as she is shipping analytical apps. Her work often surfaces non-obvious patterns from heterogeneous sources, making complex models interpretable for stakeholders.
