Core Competencies
A designated Microsoft Certified BI Reporting Professional with over 12 years of experience having a passion for
data analysis and making informed decisions backed by data. I strongly believe that with the advent in technology there
is no best solution to anything but only a better solution, the challenge is in identifying what best can you make of the
data at hand and make the most of what you have. My obsession with being productive and optimising processes has
been the driving force for me to learn tools like Power BI, Power Query and DAX which are very powerful.
Skilled in Data analysis, Data Visualization, Data Manipulation, Modelling, Dashboards and direct connectivity to data
sources in Excel and Power BI.
I am an avid listener and articulate speaker and look at myself as someone who understands the Business side of
things and can use not just Excel and Advance Formulas, Pivot Tables etc.. but also, the Power Tools like Power
Query, DAX, Advanced Visualisation using Power BI etc.
This makes me a complete package and perfectly suited for a Techno Functional kind of a role where I would be
able to express and demonstrate key artefacts relating to Impact Analysis, RCA, Productivity Trends and areas
of opportunities just to name a few by using the best tools available. I see more and more companies moving to
Self Service BI which would merge the IT and Operations role to quite an extent and hence I bring the best of
both worlds to the table!
