What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values data-driven decision-making.

I am a data professional with over 8 years of experience in high-volume, high-accuracy data entry and advanced analytics. My expertise lies in utilizing tools such as SQL, Power BI, and Tableau to produce insightful reports and dashboards that support critical decisions in policy, health, finance, and operations. I have a proven track record of integrating and analyzing diverse data sources, including clinical and pharmaceutical data, to drive compliance and improve efficiency.

In my current role as a Data Analyst at Plan International, I have successfully automated reporting processes, significantly reducing delivery times while maintaining a 99.8% accuracy rate in data entry for over 150,000 beneficiaries. My previous experiences at CAPS Pharmaceuticals and Health and Mind Clinic have further honed my skills in data validation, compliance, and strategic decision-making, leading to improved operational outcomes and enhanced data integrity.
