What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration and innovation, where I can leverage my data analysis skills to drive impactful business decisions and contribute to a dynamic team environment.

I am a data analyst with a strong background in computer science and a passion for transforming data into actionable insights. My academic journey at the University of Windsor, where I earned my M.Sc in Computer Science, equipped me with the analytical skills necessary to excel in the field. I have honed my abilities through various internships and projects, including developing interactive dashboards that significantly improved data accessibility and decision-making processes.

During my recent internship, I successfully developed a Tableau dashboard that replaced outdated manual reports, enhancing data accessibility for leadership. My experience with SQL and Python has allowed me to analyze large datasets, uncovering key trends and insights that drive strategic decisions. I am particularly proud of my capstone project, where I automated data extraction and built visualizations that improved decision accuracy for customer targeting.

With certifications in Google Data Analytics and advanced data analysis techniques, I am committed to continuous learning and applying best practices in data visualization and machine learning. I thrive in collaborative environments and am eager to contribute to data-driven strategies that enhance business performance.
