What I'm looking for

I am seeking an entry-level data analyst role where I can apply Power BI, Power Apps, Python and ML to deliver measurable business insights within a collaborative, learning-focused team.

I am an Information Technology undergraduate focused on data analysis, numerical computing, and machine learning, with hands-on experience building Power BI dashboards, Power Apps, and ML models. My final-year research achieved 92.3% classification accuracy using a ResNet50+CBAM model and was deployed as an offline-capable Streamlit application for field use.

In internships I designed real-time dashboards, automated batch reporting with VBA, developed low-code apps integrated with SharePoint, and contributed to QA processes—work that sharpened my data visualization, process digitization, and testing skills. I seek to bring analytical rigor and practical solutions to an entry-level data analyst role within a collaborative, growth-focused team.
