Hi, I am Mekhala Kumar!
I am passionate about utilizing data in order to solve social issues. My research interests include migration, public health, and gender economics.
I have professional experience in public opinion research, where I analyzed voter attitudes and translated findings into actionable insights for clients.
My academic background includes a Social Data Science master’s degree from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and an undergraduate degree in Applied Mathematics and Economics from FLAME University.
Additionally, I have been practicing Karate for over a decade and hold a second DAN black belt, which has enhanced my leadership and organization skills.
This site contains the different projects I have undertaken. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
