Entry-level Data Analyst transforming complex data into actionable insights through BI and ML.
What I'm looking for
I’m an entry-level Data Analyst skilled in SQL, Python, Power BI, and Excel. I translate complex data into actionable insights for educators, stakeholders, and non-technical audiences.
I developed a student dropout risk prediction model using the OULAD dataset, applying machine learning techniques to identify at-risk students. I analyzed 32,000+ student records and built/evaluated models (Logistic Regression and Random Forest) reaching 84.6% prediction accuracy.
I also build analytics that stakeholders can explore—like an interactive Power BI dashboard for dropout risk segmentation and engagement trends. In other projects, I analyzed 177,866+ EV registrations for trend and geographic insights, and created an Import & Export Trade Power BI dashboard with an ETL pipeline and DAX KPI reporting.
Before focusing on analytics, I worked as a Software Developer (C#, SQL Server) and gained strong communication and reporting instincts as a Mathematics Teacher. I bring a diverse background in education, consulting, and data-driven support, and I’m excited to apply this blend in data analytics work.
