⚡ Power BI & Excel Dashboard Expert | Turning Messy Data Into Decisions You Can Trust Most businesses don't have a data problem — they have a visibility problem. The numbers are there, but they're scattered across spreadsheets, locked in systems that don't talk to each other, or buried in reports that take half a day to build. That's what I fix. I'm a Power BI and Excel specialist with five years of experience and 200+ completed projects, helping teams replace manual spreadsheets with automated, real-time reporting that drives faster, smarter decisions. As a Top Rated Plus freelancer with a 100% Job Success Score and a perfect track record — no 1- or 2-star reviews, ever — I deliver work that's reliable, well-documented, and built to last. 🚀 What I Deliver Power BI Dashboards & Data Models – Custom visuals, dynamic DAX measures, and executive-level reporting tailored to your business goals. Automated Data Pipelines – Connect APIs, Excel, SQL, and cloud sources to streamline data refresh and eliminate repetitive manual work. Excel & VBA Tools – Advanced formulas, macros, and calculators that simplify data management and reduce errors. Performance & Market Insights – Deep analysis across finance, construction, retail, e-commerce, and more, turning trends into clear strategies. 🧠 Core Expertise ✅ Power BI Visualizations & DAX ✅ SQL Server & API Integration ✅ Advanced Excel Formulas & Dashboards ✅ Looker Studio (Data Blending & Calculated Fields) ✅ Google Sheets & Cloud Data Automation ✅ Power Query & ETL Pipelines ✅ Power Automate & Power Apps ✅ Airtable ✅ Zapier 🏆 Featured Work Built a 9-page institutional finance dashboard tracking $27B+ in capital across 47 countries, with bridge-table data modeling and a fully branded design system. Developed branded Power BI reporting for construction firms, connecting live SharePoint data with automated budget vs. actual comparisons. Created customer success analytics tracking agent performance, refund rates, and CSAT for support teams. Connected live Shopify data to Power BI for e-commerce RFM segmentation and repeat-purchase analysis. Built Google Sheets automation systems that replaced multi-day reporting cycles with a single refresh. 🎯 Why Work With Me I bridge technical precision with business understanding — delivering dashboards that not only look great but actually drive decisions. I ask the right questions before building, document everything so your team can maintain it after I'm gone, and stay in communication from start to finish. If your reporting isn't working — or you're not even sure what's possible — send me a message. I respond within a few hours and I'm always happy to talk through the right approach first.
