Data Analyst leveraging 19+ years in education to deliver insights with SQL, Python, and Power BI.
What I'm looking for
I’m a data-driven professional transitioning from 19+ years in the education industry, bringing strong analytical thinking, problem-solving ability, and data interpretation to every challenge. I specialize in Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) and in creating interactive Power BI dashboards that turn complex datasets into clear, business-ready insights. I use Python and SQL for data extraction, cleaning, analysis, and reporting, then translate results into actionable decisions that improve performance metrics and optimize processes.
In my current path, I’m building deeper technical strength through an EPGP in Data Science (UpGrad/IIIT Bangalore), while applying analytics in real-world projects like marketing/retail data analysis and “Namma Yatri” ride data visualization. From my education experience, I’ve analyzed student performance across unit tests, term exams, and board results to identify trends and learning gaps, built dashboards and reports in Microsoft Excel/Google Sheets, and tracked KPIs such as pass percentage, subject averages, and improvement rates. I’m especially proud of work that required turning messy or inconsistent data into reliable structure—so stakeholders can trust the insights and act quickly.
