E-Commerce Customer Retention Analysis

OLIST Brazilian Marketplace ยท 100K Orders

Pythonpandasstatsmodelsscikit-learn

The Question

What drives customers to come back โ€” and which segments are worth retention spend?

The Approach

  • Cleaned and joined a 100K-order relational dataset across orders, payments, reviews, and geography
  • Built OLS and logistic regression models to identify repurchase drivers
  • Segmented the customer base with RFM (Recency-Frequency-Monetary) analysis
  • Translated model coefficients into concrete retention recommendations

Key Takeaway

Delivery experience and review scores dominate repurchase probability; a small high-value segment justifies targeted retention investment.

Mincer Wage Equation Analysis

CPS Microdata ยท ~64K Records

REconometricsBootstrapCross-validation

The Question

How much does an additional year of education actually raise wages โ€” and does the classic Mincer model hold up?

The Approach

  • Estimated multiple specifications of the Mincer wage equation on ~64K CPS records
  • Ran five diagnostic tests covering heteroskedasticity, specification, and normality
  • Constructed bootstrap confidence intervals for key coefficients
  • Compared models via cross-validation rather than in-sample fit alone

Key Takeaway

Returns to education remain robust across specifications, but the experience profile deviates meaningfully from the textbook quadratic form.

University ROI Analysis

Custom Financial Metrics ยท UCLA Deep-Dive

RFinancial ModelingData Visualization

The Question

Which universities deliver the best financial return on tuition โ€” and how does UCLA compare?

The Approach

  • Designed custom ROI metrics combining cost, completion rates, and earnings outcomes
  • Ranked institutions on risk-adjusted return rather than raw earnings
  • Conducted a self-initiated deep-dive on UCLA outcomes by major
  • Visualized cost-vs-earnings tradeoffs for decision support

Key Takeaway

Sticker price is a poor predictor of value: several public institutions dominate elite privates once completion risk is priced in.
