I turn boring data into engaging visuals, making it easy for companies to access and understand their information. With 90+ Looker Studio projects under my belt, I've helped clients in diverse industries like fintech, education, and consumer goods. With a UI/UX background, I focus on user-centered design to ensure reports are intuitive and visually appealing. Why you should work with me: ✅ UX-certified - I will always think about the end-user when creating reports, making them engaging, frequently used and shared across your organization ✅ High visual design standard - in order for your report to be read, it should be reflecting your brand identity and be visually appealing ✅ Experience working with multiple businesses - your reports should represent your main business KPIs and answer to the key business question ✅ Less reporting, more insights - I am focused on creating reports that drive your business success forward My process often looks like this: ✔ Understanding your business and gathering the initial requirement of the project ✔ Connecting the data sources ✔ Preparing a working prototype (version 1.0 of the dashboard) ✔ Delivering final output and a user specification when needed ✔ Insights + Recommendations I prefer agile over waterfall, so I normally have multiple check-ins with my clients when I work. My goal is to overdeliver on every project and make my clients happy.

As a (Big) Data Professional, I have a strong passion for developing Dashboards, Reports, Data Models and Performance related insights. Since I can map the Business Requirements as a Business Analyst and as a Data Analyst / Business Intelligence Specialist then translate them into operational dashboards and performance related insights, I can always develop a solution without any miscommunication with stakeholders, with Data Science experience I can also perform advanced analytics to large data sets. Automating the process concerning Data Extraction and Data Transformation also falls under my expertise. Hard skills: SQL, VBA, Excel, Python, Power BI, Google Data Studio
