Roger Pizarro Milian, Manager, Student Data & Analytics, is pleased to announce that Grace Zhu is joining the OVPS Data & Analytics team in September as Senior Information Analyst. This is a key position that will enhance capacity to respond to data requests associated with the Student Equity Census from across the university community. 

Since graduating from the University of Toronto in 2016 with a degree in Economics, Grace has taken on a number of roles at U of T, including as a project assistant on a couple of initiatives, as well as a Data Analyst in both the School of Graduate Studies (SGS) and Rotman School of Business. In her most recent role at SGS, she produced and maintained a range of dashboards, including for admissions, completion, gradSERU, and other types of data. Grace also earned a master’s in business analytics from the University of Melbourne.   

“I’m delighted to join OVPS where I’ll have the chance to work with passionate colleagues who are dedicated to driving meaningful change,” says Grace.  

“I look forward to contributing to the team’s ongoing success by bringing my analytical skills and collaborative mindset to advance our shared commitment to student success.” 

Grace will be splitting her time between the OVPS and Institutional Research & Data Governance (IRDG) offices during her first few months in this role, as she will be immersed in several projects drawing on IRDG’s IT infrastructure. Grace can be reached via email.
