What I'm looking for

I am looking for a data role where I can build dashboards and models, collaborate cross-functionally, automate processes, and drive business decisions in a growth-oriented, data-driven team.

I am a versatile Data Analyst and Software Engineer with over one year of professional experience, combining hands-on data engineering, analytics, and software development to deliver business impact. I specialize in Power BI, SQL, Python, and building real-time dashboards that accelerate executive decision-making.

In previous roles I integrated data from multiple sources, engineered automated validation scripts that improved dataset integrity to 99%, and developed interactive dashboards and automated reports that reduced manual effort and shortened decision cycles. I have also delivered predictive models, reduced model training time with feature-selection techniques, and improved forecasting and engagement metrics.

I collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, document and automate developer onboarding, and focus on translating technical work into strategic business outcomes. I seek opportunities where I can continue to apply data storytelling, analytics, and software skills to drive operational efficiency and measurable growth.
