Omar Jesry
I am skilled in online verification and interpretation of data, open-source investigations, and data entry and analysis. My background at the Commercial Banking Institute provides a strong foundation for my focus on tracking the activities and financial assets of individuals potentially involved in human rights violations.
My previous roles include working as a data entry specialist and an administrative assistant, where I gained valuable experience. Currently, I am the team’s focal point for accessing secondary data and integrating it into the team’s database management. I am dedicated to enhancing my data management skills using SQL and automating data entry with Python and Excel VBA. My interests also encompass Big Data analysis tools like Hadoop and Spark, as well as enhancing my English proficiency and developing my writing skills for research reports.
