Über Philipp
I’m a freelance Data Scientist and PhD Economist with over 10 years of experience in data analysis, econometrics, applied machine learning, and strategic communication. My background combines rigorous academic research with hands-on projects in business and public policy — giving me a unique perspective on how to turn complex data into actionable insights.
How I help businesses:
- Build and deploy predictive analytics and machine learning models for forecasting, risk assessment, and performance optimization.
- Apply causal inference and econometric methods to uncover what truly drives business outcomes — beyond simple correlations.
- Translate analytical results into clear, data-driven strategies that support confident decision-making and measurable impact.
