Paola Jayme Romaguera

Data & Spatial Analyst · Climate Risk Specialist

Headshot of Paola Romaguera

I transform complex and fragmented datasets into clear, decision-ready insights. Working at the intersection of data analytics, geospatial science, and climate risk, I combine statistical and spatial analysis, remote sensing, scenario-based modeling, and workflow automation to uncover patterns, assess risk, and communicate insights for planning, investment, and policy decisions. I leverage AI as a thought partner throughout my workstream, integrating AI-assisted development to build and optimize bespoke geospatial algorithms and automation scripts, and pursue self-directed projects exploring AI's applications within GIS and climate-risk analytics.
