At STATE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE, I analyzed finance, revenue, operational and compliance data to identify trends, anomalies and control weaknesses. I developed interactive Power BI dashboards and automated reporting and reconciliation templates to support management reporting and decision-making.

I also created automated asset, store and HR reporting templates, and a motor-vehicle audit and reconciliation template covering licensing stations and Local Government Areas. I recently completed a Data Analytics programme at TS Academy, building practical skills in SQL, Excel and Power BI; I’m also a qualified Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA).
