Data Analyst and Power BI Developer turning data into KPI-driven business insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Data Analyst and Power BI Developer who transforms complex datasets into actionable business intelligence. I work end-to-end with SQL, Power BI (DAX, Power Query), Advanced Excel, and Python to clean, model, and visualize data for decision-makers.
In projects and client work, I’ve built KPI dashboards that track revenue and profitability, modeled and transformed 1M+ rows for faster, consistent reporting, and delivered churn analysis using SQL and Python. I focus on scalable relational models (star/snowflake), strong data validation, and interactive dashboards (drill-through, slicers, bookmarks), and I’m available for remote and international engagements.
