Top SchoolYusuf Aktan is a data scientist based in Berlin with eight years of experience applying machine learning and analytics to pricing, marketplaces, and revenue optimization across industries from fintech to entertainment. He has driven dynamic pricing and booking-curve simulations for sports leagues, ski resorts, and cinema chains, and currently shapes data products at CLARK after marketplace-focused work at Berlin Brands Group. His background in finance and investment due diligence gives him a strong quantitative foundation for tackling complex market and pricing questions, while a stint launching a family-office fund reflects business-facing rigor. Curious and multilingual, he has contributed to academic research in chemistry and brings a habit of aggregating disparate data sources to tell actionable stories.
