About me

Before my career as a data analyst, I was a consistent Academic scholar who graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Marine Transportation, where I got Licensed as a Merchant Marine Officer and worked onboard oil-chemical tankers as a Seafarer for almost 3 years.

When the COVID-19 pandemic put that career to a halt, I quickly adapted and acquired new skills, I then started working in the Financial Services industry and Sales for almost 2 years before becoming a Data analyst.

I created several Capstone projects, Studied Statistics, finished the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate, and even completed a Data Science and Business Analytics Internship at The Sparks Foundation.

Currently, I have been working on building projects to further improve my skills and knowledge in SQL, Python, Tableau, Excel, and other tools.

I have also been engaging in physical activities like weightlifting and running as I believe there is a strong positive correlation between physical and mental health.

Instacart dataset Analysis

Analyzed the dataset of a popular online grocery delivery service in the US using Microsoft SQL Server and visualized the data using a Tableau Dashboard.

It was a great experience handling this extremely large dataset using SQL.

- 5 tables
- 19 columns
- 34,000,000 + rows


This Capstone Project also has a 10 minute live video presentation posted on YouTube!

- Exploratory Data Analysis - Retail

VIEW PROJECT

Exploratory Data Analysis - Retail

In this scenario:
I am a business manager and my job is to find the weak areas we can work on to make more profit.

Exploratory Data Analysis on Python about a Superstore that sells Phones, Copiers, Office Supplies, and Furnitures.(SampleSuperstore.csv)

I also made a three page interactive Dashboard on Tableau. (including the postal codes)

Completed as part of my Data Science Internship at The Sparks Foundation.

This project has a 13 minute video presentation posted on YouTube.

VIEW PROJECT

Prediction using Supervised Machine Learning

Developed a supervised machine learning model in Python to predict students' exam scores based on their study hours.

I used Python's Scikit-Learn for this Supervised Machine Learning project
This is a Simple Linear Regression as it only involves 2 variables.

Completed as part of my Data Science Internship at The Sparks Foundation.

This project has an 8 minute video presentation posted on YouTube.

Danny's Diner

Danny wants to use the data to answer a few simple questions about his customers, especially about their visiting patterns, how much money they’ve spent and also which menu items are their favourite.

Having this deeper connection with his customers will help him deliver a better and more personalised experience for his loyal customers.

Was able to practice the following SQL skills:
- Window Functions
- Aggregate Functions
- CTE/Common Table Expressions
- CASE Statements

VIEW PROJECT

Pizza Runner

Danny was scrolling through his Instagram feed when something really caught his eye - “80s Retro Styling and Pizza Is The Future!” Danny was sold on the idea, but he knew that pizza alone was not going to help him get seed funding to expand his new Pizza Empire - so he had one more genius idea to combine with it - he was going to Uberize it - and so Pizza Runner was launched!

Danny started by recruiting “runners” to deliver fresh pizza from Pizza Runner Headquarters (otherwise known as Danny’s house) and also maxed out his credit card to pay freelance developers to build a mobile app to accept orders from customers.

Was able to practice Data Cleaning and SQL Queries

VIEW PROJECT

Balanced Tree Clothing Co.

VIEW PROJECT

Analyzing Customer Churn in Excel

For subscription-based businesses, reducing customer churn is a top priority.

In this Excel case study, I investigated a dataset from an example telecom company Databel and analyzed their churn rates.

Analyzing churn doesn’t just mean knowing the churn rate:
it’s also about figuring out why customers are churning at the rate they are and how to reduce churn.

I answered these questions by creating calculated columns and fields, building PivotTables, and creating an eye-catching dashboard.

Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate

I've completed the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate!
Throughout this journey, I've acquired some invaluable skills.

I've become proficient in collecting and cleaning data using tools like SQL, Tableau, R, Google Sheets, and Excel. Analyzing data has become second nature to me.

I've also learned how to create compelling data visualizations using Tableau, which is essential for conveying insights effectively, I also worked on a Capstone Project entitled “Cyclistic Bike-Share”.

This accomplishment brings me one step closer to my goal of becoming a Data Analyst, and it perfectly aligns with my interests and career aspirations.

I'm excited to see where this newfound knowledge will take me in my professional journey!
