Renu Ann Joseph Founder and CEO of Luminant Analytics

Dr. Renu Ann Joseph is passionate about using data insights to unravel the big picture. A key ingredient in her problem-solving approach is the combination of traditional analytical methods and a fresh, objective, data-driven perspective.

In her most recent role before founding Luminant Analytics, she worked on identifying and projecting external environment changes, captured from varied data sources, and linking them to a large re-insurer’s US casualty book of business. Though the scope of trends spanned several casualty lines of business, the focus of most of her work was on analyzing the deteriorating loss environment in US auto insurance, using out-of-the-box thinking applied to conventional data sources.

Renu is a trained Economist, with work experience in the financial services industry and in public health, in both corporate and academic environments. In the past fifteen years, she has worked on headline topics in casualty insurance data analytics, macroeconomic modeling, health policy analysis and tobacco control economics.
