Ludwe B. Ngangelizwe
Economic Analyst
Johannesburg
Summary
I possess an Honors degree in Econometrics from the University of Johannesburg, which I achieved prior to commencing my career at Statistics South Africa as a Survey Statistician. This role provided me with experience in working with large datasets and honed my analytical skills. My current position is as an Economist/Economic Analyst at Applied Development Research Solutions (ADRS), a consultancy specializing in economic modelling, policy research, capacity building and advisory services. This has enabled me to develop my abilities in macroeconomic analysis, and to contribute to current economic policy debates, as well as assisting various organizations with making informed economic decisions using quantitative evidence. I am endeavoring to advance my career and to provide additional contributions.
