Business Intelligence Analyst and Reporting Lead delivering scalable insights with Power BI and SQL.
What I'm looking for
I deliver actionable insights through scalable reporting and business intelligence. I’m a Business Intelligence Analyst with 3+ years of experience bridging business needs with technical solutions to drive performance.
In my most recent role as Reporting Lead, I led a cloud-scale analytics migration by moving 100+ production reports from GCP to Azure, improving system stability and reducing query latency through redesigned data pipelines and optimized Power BI semantic models. I also enhanced performance monitoring with usage tracking and resource optimization, and I supported continuous improvement by creating structured feedback loops between business users and data teams.
Earlier, I built and maintained data pipelines by integrating heterogeneous data sources using SQL and Python, with automated validation checks. I contributed to campaign optimization by developing predictive audience segmentation and improved forecast reliability by analyzing uncertainty drivers, while translating complex analytics into transparent dashboards for non-technical stakeholders.
