About

Jack of all trades, Master of some.

I am Jeet Patel, an analytics professional with 7+ years of experience solving complex problems in the retail and automotive industry. I firmly believe that in this data-driven age, we can unlock the latent patterns that lie within the humongous amount of data we generate, to make better decisions. I have a Master's Degree in Business Analytics from UC Davis (2022) and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering from IIT Kanpur (2017). I also obtained a Minor in Industrial Management and Engineering during my undergrad.

Outside of work, you can find me enjoying a hearty game of Snooker or Foosball. Pretty decent at it. Occasionally, I also indulge in playing board games such as Settlers of Catan and Codenames. Currently playing Elden Ring. Besides these, I love traveling to and exploring new places, which is further fueled by my love of capturing the world through my own perspective. I post few of the images that I love on Instagram.
