Prakriti Rastogi
Data Science Analyst for Payments Analytics
eBay
I look at how buyers are making payments on the eBay platform.
The best part about my job is that I have to face different types of problems everyday and think of a solution!
Lots of online meetings and phone calls.
I have been coding since I was in 8th grade. Although I have NOT loved every minute of it, once out of high school, I found that coding had grown on me. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from Shaheed Bhagat Singh College in India. I then went on to earn a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from IFMR Graduate School of Business in India. I worked in Finance in India for just over 3 years. Then I came to the US to attend UC Davis Graduate School of Management for a Master of Science in Business Analytics. After a Data Analyst practicum project and internship, I started at eBay. I've been working here for over 4 years now! so I chose a career path where I have to do just that, every day!
Continuing both my personal and professional growth are the only things I am after!
These days, I like to paint and play Scrabble in my free time. My hobbies keep changing with my mood! ;)
