My name is Artiom, I also sometimes use the nickname Master Splinter 🐀 🥋, the wise rat-teacher from the Ninja Turtles. This is my personal website, where you can find both professional information and personal reflections.
My core strength is that I see things as they truly are, therefore I often can bring clarity to even most challenging cases. Additionally, thanks to my unique life experiences, I often see things from perspectives others might overlook, noticing details that frequently remain unseen. I consider myself a “Navigator in the World of Hidden Opportunities” 👁️🗨️. However, this distinct viewpoint can sometimes make it challenging to articulate my thoughts precisely, leading me to rely on metaphors. But first, a brief formal introduction:
Artiom Kovnatsky, PhD, is a highly skilled and innovative Data Scientist and Business Analyst with a talent for uncovering hidden insights and activating data to drive strategic decisions. I specialize in data science, business analysis, MLOps, and consulting, and am recognized for my ability to extract business value from imperfect or sparse data, even in challenging environments. My expertise lies in discovering unseen opportunities and delivering impactful solutions. With a strategic mindset and a creative approach, I have a proven track record of leading teams to success and managing high-stakes projects with precision. Proficient in various tools and methodologies, I focus on driving efficiency and results.
