What I'm looking for

I seek a data-driven role where I can build scalable BI solutions, automate reporting, enforce data quality, and collaborate cross-functionally to drive measurable operational and strategic impact.

I am a Senior Data Analyst and Business Intelligence professional with over five years of experience helping organizations use data to drive smarter decisions across technology, enterprise, telecom, and NGO environments. My career has focused on building scalable analytics solutions that connect data engineering with business strategy.

Currently, I work as a Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at Griffin Global Technologies, where I support international clients including Chick-fil-A, Brinks US, and CoinFlip. In this role, I design and maintain dashboards using SQL, Tableau, and Power BI, automate reporting pipelines with Python, Power Automate, and integrate data from multiple systems such as Snowflake, SQL Server, Databricks, AWS Redshift, Salesforce, and APIs. My work has contributed to measurable impact, including reducing operational costs by 10% and cutting manual reporting effort by over 35%.

Previously, I worked at Safaricom PLC as a Programme Analyst, where I led the development of Tableau dashboards for financial and operational KPIs, supported forecasting and planning initiatives, and partnered closely with operations and finance teams to translate business problems into data-driven solutions. I have also worked in mission-driven environments at Science for Africa Foundation and PwC Kenya, where I focused on data validation, governance, ERP systems, and building reliable reporting frameworks.

My core strengths include SQL, Tableau, Power BI, Python, data modeling, KPI design, forecasting support, automation, and data quality management. I am experienced with modern data stacks such as Snowflake, AWS Redshift, Databricks, DBT, SSIS, and Azure Data Factory, and I enjoy working across the full data lifecycle—from raw data ingestion to executive-level insights.

Beyond technical skills, I bring a strong analytical mindset, structured thinking, and a high level of ownership. I enjoy working with ambiguous problems, asking the right questions, and turning complex or messy data into simple, actionable insights that drive real business impact.

My interests lie in building data products, improving decision-making processes, automation, and working with globally distributed teams on meaningful, scalable problems. I am particularly interested in remote-first companies where data plays a central role in strategy, growth, and performance.
