What I'm looking for

I seek entry-level analytics roles where I can apply Power BI, SQL and Python to drive data-driven decisions, grow technically, and collaborate across teams.

I am a final-year BBA (Hons) Business Analytics undergraduate at the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology, dedicated to turning data into actionable insights. During an Experience Research Internship at the International Water Management Institute, I developed a Power BI dashboard and data collection protocols for the ScFI project and supported portfolio management across research groups.

I have hands-on skills in Power BI, Excel, SQL, Python and documentation, complemented by coursework and certifications in technology, innovation, management and database fundamentals. I have been recognized on the Dean's List for academic excellence and have practical experience in analytical problem solving through internships and academic projects such as a CSR first-aid room establishment.

I am organized, proactive and a strong team player with attention to detail, communication and critical-thinking strengths. I am eager to apply my analytics skills in real-world roles that emphasize data visualization, process improvement and cross-functional collaboration.
