About me

Ibrahim Byiringiro

Statistics, data and the stories they tell

I'm a data enthusiast with 15+ years of experience applying statistics, data science and quantitative research to complex challenges in education, government and international development.

I've led data modernization initiatives, built automated reporting systems and interactive dashboards, and led teams of statisticians and analysts. I enjoy pairing deep methodological rigor with hands-on tooling: SQL, R, Python, Stata and workflow automation.

Outside of data, I enjoy volunteering, running, playing basketball and soccer, and exploring the outdoors.
