About Me

I’m a Lead Data Analyst with 5+ years of experience turning complex survey and operational data into actionable insights. At Grant Thornton Stax, I’ve led end-to-end analytics projects from survey design and modeling to building Power BI dashboards. Skilled in SQL, Python, and data visualization, I focus on driving decisions, reducing inefficiencies, and uncovering growth opportunities.

Currently pursuing a Master’s in Business Analytics at the University of Colombo, I’m expanding my expertise in advanced analytics, machine learning, and data science. Passionate about translating complexity into clarity, I aim to bridge technical insight with business impact.

Open to freelance projects and collaborations that turn analytics into real-world results.
