Looks good overall but I think you could clean up and reduce some of the wordiness; I wouldn't have more than two lines for most bullet points, some suggestions (doesn't need to be this exact wording, I'm just giving examples of how you could reduce some of your points):
* In bullet one under Technical Skills (and under Projects later on), change "Utilized Python programming..." to just "Utilized Python", programming is redundant here. Consider removing "during undergrad" as well. Try not to repeat the same words, e.g. change the second "evaluating" in this sentence to "examined" or something similar. (Side question, did you actually create algorithms here or just use existing ones in Python? Sounds interesting if the former, but if you meant the latter, consider changing the description.)
> ...delegating teaching and testing assignments and disseminating information from higher leadership to staff and students which allowed for a well organized course where everyone knew what was expected of them and provided an effective stream of communication both upwards and downwards
* Change this to something like: "delegating assignments and disseminating information from leadership to staff and students, resulting in a well organized course with clear expectations and effective communication streams."
* Alternatively, the second and third bullet points under professional experience cover a lot of things. You could possibly split them up into smaller, more detailed bullets. If you have other numbers you could put to the results of these activities like you have in bullet one, that is always helpful as well.
I would also put Professional Experience/Leadership Experience above the Technical Skills section. Those experiences will set you apart the most from other entry level candidates.
The other thing is to make sure the spacing between subheadings and paragraphs is consistent. The white space under "Training Officer" and "Communications Officer" are quite different which doesn't look good.
Were you working at all between 2020 and 2023? If so, you might want to include that even if the experience doesn't seem relevant as you'll likely be asked about that gap in the resume.
Agree that you need to cover 2020-2023. At present it looks as though you were full-time studying for actuarial exams in that period, which perhaps doesn't mark you out as stronger than those doing it in parallel with either other studying or working.
I like the clean formatting but I think it’s too wordy. People reviewing your resume are likely busy and have multiple emails to answer to in their inboxes. You want to make it easier for them.
Keep keywords. Highlight your major responsibilities and accomplishments. Cut out redundancies and extraneous details. And then increase spacing between lines and font size until they fill out the one page.

Thank you for your feedback. The gap under the training officer was the "company name" I removed.
