About me

An analyst who loves the messy part

Enthusiastic and self-motivated Data Analyst with hands-on experience in Python, SQL, Power BI and Jupyter Notebook. Skilled in data cleaning, exploratory analysis and building interactive dashboards that generate actionable business insights. I enjoy interpreting complex datasets, spotting trends and supporting data-driven decision making.

Currently based in Wellawatte, Colombo, Sri Lanka, I work across Python, SQL and Power BI β€” from cleaning raw data and engineering features to shipping dashboards that people actually use.
