I turn SQL and Power BI insights into business decisions through rigorous analysis.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Analyst with 2 years of SQL, ETL, and reporting experience, and I bring an MSc in Data Science & Analytics (Distinction) to every problem I touch. I’m at my best when I can move from messy data to clear, decision-ready insights.
In my Data & Reporting Analyst role at Virtusa, I developed 60+ SQL validation checks and automated recurring reports through SQL query optimisation and ETL using SSIS. I improved reporting efficiency by 65%, and I built Excel dashboards that helped non-technical stakeholders prioritise actions using migration KPIs and escalation status.
I also focused on data quality and root-cause analysis, running 150+ investigations into data discrepancies and communicating findings clearly to non-technical teams. I enjoy translating analysis outcomes into practical next steps—whether that’s fixing pipeline issues or refining how we measure performance.
Through projects like CLV & Churn Risk Analysis and Marketing Campaign Performance & A/B Testing, I’ve combined EDA, clustering, and experimentation with Power BI reporting to support retention and budget decisions. My work approach is consistent: validate assumptions, quantify impact, and present results in a way teams can act on immediately.
