Data Analyst with 3+ years transforming data into predictive, self-service insights for business teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Analyst with 3+ years of experience leveraging Python, SQL, and modern BI tools to turn complex datasets into actionable business insights. At GEICO, I built automated Python workflows and Azure Data Factory pipelines processing millions of policy records monthly, cutting data refresh time by 30%, while creating Power BI dashboards for churn, retention, and policy trends across 20K+ high-risk customers.
I also develop predictive analytics and trustworthy data foundations—building ARIMA and Prophet time-series models that improved churn prediction accuracy by 22% and implementing Python/SQL data quality and anomaly detection that caught 95% of issues before production. Previously at Cognizant, I delivered Python/SQL ETL integrating ServiceNow and internal systems, built Power BI KPI dashboards with DAX and Power Query, and partnered with stakeholders to define KPI logic and data standards.
