@ramyagangadharan
Data analyst with 10+ yrs ops experience, upskilled in ML during career break.
What I'm looking for
I am a data-driven professional with over 10 years of experience across aviation, logistics, and construction industries, where I’ve honed my strengths in operations, client coordination, and data management. Throughout my career, I consistently sought ways to leverage data for process optimization and strategic decision-making.
In 2020, I took a planned career break to focus on childbirth and early childcare—a deeply rewarding chapter of my life. During this period, I also made a deliberate and determined investment in upskilling, channeling my time and energy into a career transition toward data science and analytics.
I completed an Advanced Certification in Data Science and AI from IIT Madras, alongside certifications in Alteryx Designer Core and Google Analytics. I deepened my skills in Python, SQL, Power BI, and machine learning through self-led projects such as:
A movie recommendation system using SVD
Sales forecasting for Walmart using ARIMA
COVID-19 trend modeling with Facebook Prophet
Customer churn prediction using Keras
These hands-on projects reflect my ability to apply analytical models to real-world scenarios, extract actionable insights, and communicate findings clearly. I’m now excited to re-enter the workforce with a refreshed perspective—blending my rich professional background with newly acquired technical skills—to contribute meaningfully in a Data Analyst role.
