About

I hold a Master’s degree in Information Technology and Management (Data Analytics) from the Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, and have over 3 years of hands-on experience working with data to support better business decisions. I specialize in building reliable reporting pipelines, dashboards, and analytics solutions using Python, SQL, AWS, Excel, and Power BI. My work focuses on turning raw data into clear, accurate insights that help teams improve efficiency, monitor performance, and solve operational problems. I enjoy working closely with business, operations, and technical teams to understand their needs and deliver practical, easy-to-use data solutions. I’m especially interested in improving data quality, automating recurring processes, and making analytics accessible to non-technical users. I’m passionate about continuous learning and enjoy finding smarter ways to streamline data workflows and support data-driven decision-making. Happy to connect and collaborate with professionals who value impactful, well-designed analytics.
