What I'm looking for

I seek a data role supporting MEAL or program teams where I can improve data quality, reporting, and impact measurement while growing technical and stakeholder-facing skills.

I am a data analysis graduate experienced in collecting, cleaning, analyzing, and reporting program and operational data to enable evidence-based decision-making. I transform raw datasets into clear, actionable insights using Power BI, Excel, and Python to strengthen MEAL systems and reporting accuracy for NGOs and partner organizations.

My hands-on work includes HR datasets, predictive analytics, fraud detection, and sentiment analysis, with demonstrated results such as high detection rates in fraud modeling and identifying high-value customer segments. I prioritize data quality, reproducible workflows, and stakeholder-focused visualizations to drive program improvement and measurable impact.
