I'm Muzayan — a consulting actuary, data scientist, and builder working at the intersection of healthcare analytics, AI, and the tools that make complex things accessible.
My professional home has been healthcare actuarial work for over 15 years. I'm a Principal at Wakely Consulting Group, where I specialize in risk adjustment, ACA and Medicare analytics, and the mechanics of how health insurance actually prices and pays for care.
Alongside that, I build products. I'm drawn to the problem of complexity — powerful analytical ideas trapped behind technical barriers, accessible only to specialists. I want to change that.
My current projects live at the intersection of AI and accessibility:
Powerful tools should be intuitive. The gap between "what experts can do with data" and "what everyone else can do with data" is mostly an interface problem — not an intelligence problem.
I also believe that uncertainty is underrated. Fifteen years of actuarial work teaches you that the best models acknowledge what they don't know. That lesson spills into everything.
I'm fascinated by astrophysics and complexity science — systems that behave in ways no individual part could predict. I do astrophotography when the skies cooperate (Bortle 6, unfortunately). I read widely, write occasionally, and am currently working on a memoir about navigating uncertainty called Yours, Uncertainly.
I grew up in Lahore, have lived in several cities since, and think a lot about how place shapes identity — and how it doesn't.
