Joan Waithera

I am a skilled data analyst with a strong focus on delivering actionable insights. My expertise lies in utilizing advanced analytical tools such as Tableau, Power BI, SQL, Excel, Big Query, Looker Studio, and Python programming to drive data-driven decision-making. I thrive in high-pressure environments, demonstrating exceptional problem-solving and critical thinking skills to understand complex issues and provide clear insights.

In my recent role as a Data Analyst at Elka Creative, I optimized media buy-ins through data-driven research, leading to a 25% increase in social media engagement. I developed data visualization techniques that effectively communicated complex analytics findings to non-technical stakeholders, fostering informed decision-making. My experience as a Freelance Researcher and Writer further honed my ability to translate technical information into accessible language, bridging the gap between experts and the general audience.

Additionally, my internship experiences have equipped me with practical skills in data preprocessing, machine learning, and project management. I led a team of six during my internship at Ramana Technical School, where we successfully implemented data analysis and visualization techniques, showcasing my leadership abilities. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive impactful decisions and am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic team.
