Data Analyst building Power BI decision-support dashboards that reveal crude oil price patterns, entry timing, risk boundaries, and profit probability.
What I'm looking for
I built and maintained a decision-support dashboard for an independent crude oil data project, analysing historical price behaviour across market conditions. It grew from a price analysis setup in Excel into an interactive Power BI dashboard for comparing scenarios and exploring entry timing, risk boundaries, and profit probability.
Before moving into data, I spent years as a field service engineer diagnosing and repairing machines on client sites. I’m now building my analytics portfolio through Power BI projects and training, and I hold the Microsoft Certified: Power BI Data Analyst Associate (PL-300) certification.
