⚡ 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.

Ranked in the top 3% on Upwork globally, I’ve built trusted relationships with 80+ clients and received 60+ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reviews -- all within my first year of active use. With 14+ years of experience in Data Analytics, I operate at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and automation -- uncovering the signal behind the noise and translating it into insights leaders can act on. My work doesn’t just explain what happened; it clarifies why it matters and what to do next. As a Top Rated Plus freelancer, clients rely on me as a true thought partner, not just a technician. From Excel automation and SQL optimization to executive-level dashboards, financial models, and automated reporting systems, I design solutions that are precise, scalable, and decision-ready. Clients hire me when they need data analytics that answer questions like: • Where is our profit actually coming from? • What will revenue look like over the next 3–5 years? • Which marketing channels or business units are driving ROI? • How do we automate reporting so leadership sees the numbers instantly? My models and dashboards are designed for CFOs, founders, and executives who need confidence in their numbers. Core Expertise: ✔️Data Analytics & Engineering: Advanced SQL, Excel, SAS, and Access solutions that transform raw, fragmented data into reliable, analysis-ready assets. ✔️Statistical & Predictive Modeling: Regression, forecasting, and scenario modeling designed to support real business decisions—not academic exercises. ✔️Executive Visualization & BI: Tableau and Power BI dashboards that tell a clear story, highlight trade-offs, and drive alignment at the leadership level. ✔️AI-Driven Analytics & Automation: I embed AI directly into SQL workflows, Excel models, and financial analytics to accelerate insight delivery without sacrificing business context. My approach blends deep analytical reasoning (≈70%) with AI-powered automation (≈30%), ensuring speed and accuracy. ✔️Database & Performance Optimization: Purpose-built data structures and optimized queries that turn databases into high-performance decision engines. 💬 Client Feedback (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐): (Recent Review from E.H.) "Subomi is the literal best, total icon!! I am genuinely grateful. I love partnering with a smart, hard, competent worker and he is just that! He is a great thought partner, beyond just someone to create models for you. I hired him for multiple projects and hired him additionally after I needed to redo work from someone who wasn't as thorough. He is extremely accurate, thorough, patient, helpful, willing to iterate, and does more than just create the models/chart/KPIs that you need - he helps you tell the story (both written and walking you through it) so you can understand all his assumptions. He makes projects better than what you would do on your own. Also, the work was so good that my bigwig private equity friend who reviewed his work was super impressed." 🌟 Let’s Build Something That Moves the Needle: If you need clarity from complexity, confidence in your numbers, or analytics that actually influence decisions, let’s talk. I don’t just deliver outputs; I deliver understanding, alignment, and results.
