I build analytics that actually get used

I'm a BTech CSE graduate who found her calling at the intersection of data engineering and business storytelling. My approach is always the same: understand the business problem first, build clean data pipelines second, and let the visualisation speak last — because a beautiful dashboard built on dirty data is just a pretty lie. I've applied this end-to-end across real internship work — analysing 23,000+ records across multiple departments and building weekly operational reporting pipelines that directly influenced product decisions — and across three independent projects covering IT support SLA analytics, SaaS product metrics, and global workforce automation risk. I'm now looking for a full-time Data Analyst role where I can own the full pipeline, not just the last mile.

Helpdesk Performance & SLA Analytics
Business Problem

IT managers at large organisations have no visibility into why SLAs keep getting missed. They can't tell whether it's a staffing problem, a routing problem, or a category-specific issue — so every intervention is a guess. This dashboard was built to answer: where exactly is SLA compliance breaking down, and what does leadership need to do about it?

Actionable Findings
01 Network tickets breach SLA at 37.5% — the highest of any category — despite having the fastest resolution time at 23hrs. The breach happens in the 1-hour first-response window. Fix: dedicate on-call coverage during peak Monday morning hours.
02 3 agents handle 35% of all tickets (973, 973, 928 vs team avg of 400). The scatter chart shows these same agents have the highest breach rates — confirming this is a workload distribution failure, not a skill gap.
03 SLA breach rate held flat at ~23% across 26 months with no improvement trend. This rules out random variation — it's a structural problem requiring a staffing or routing intervention, not monthly process tweaks.
04 Marketing generates 22.97 tickets per employee — the highest burden ratio of any department. Despite having only 35 staff, they place more per-capita demand on IT than Engineering (120 staff). Targeted self-service training could reduce volume.
05 Peak load is Monday 11am–1pm and Wednesday 1pm. Current shift schedules don't reflect this — redistributing agent availability to weight Monday mornings would reduce the backlog that drives SLA breaches.
Technical highlights
  • 4-table normalised schema — FK, CHECK, UNIQUE constraints enforced at database level
  • DATEDIFF(MINUTE) ÷ 60.0 for decimal precision — integer DATEDIFF(HOUR) truncates and misclassifies tight 1–2hr SLA tickets as compliant
  • Dual-column JOIN on category + priority against sla_policy — per-ticket SLA threshold, not a blanket rule
  • 3 SQL views as Power BI data layer — all logic lives in SQL, not scattered across DAX
  • RANK() OVER window function for agent workload rankings without collapsing rows
  • Day × Hour heatmap matrix with conditional formatting gradient (dark navy → red)
  • Agent Workload vs Breach Rate scatter — identifies overload vs skill issues simultaneously
  • 12+ DAX measures with separate text and numeric versions for KPI card vs chart axis

Executive Overview User Behaviour Feature Adoption Churn & Retention

Project 02
SaaS Product Analytics Dashboard
Business Problem

A B2B SaaS company is losing nearly as much revenue to churn as it brings in every month — but leadership doesn't know whether the problem is acquisition quality, product value, or onboarding failure. This dashboard was built to answer: why are users churning, which users are worth saving, and where should the product team invest first?

Actionable Findings
01 Only 1 in 4 users is both paying and retained (1,273 of 5,000). The funnel shows 5,000 signups → 2,571 active → 2,458 paid → 1,273 paid and active. The business is spending acquisition budget while churn silently offsets every new signup.
02 $90,548 in MRR is lost to churn vs $92,818 retained — the business is running a leaky bucket where every $1 of acquisition is offset by $0.98 of churn loss. Fixing retention is worth more than scaling acquisition spend.
03 Users adopting 5 features convert at 55.3% vs 46.9% for single-feature users — an 8.4pp gap. Improving onboarding to drive early multi-feature adoption is the highest-ROI product decision available right now.
04 Free users engage longer than paid users (62.5 vs 60.4 mins avg session). This is a product value signal, not an engagement problem — paid users aren't extracting proportional value from their plan, which drives churn.
05 Google converts best (51.2%) but also churns fastest. Referral users pay $73 avg MRR vs Google's $69 and retain better — shifting acquisition investment toward a referral programme yields higher lifetime value users.
Technical highlights
  • Star schema: users (dim) → sessions, feature_usage, subscriptions (3 fact tables)
  • Sequential TRY_CONVERT with 3 style codes (23, 101, 105) — ISO, US, and European date formats in the same column
  • Session deduplication: 20,000 → 6,566 rows using MIN(session_id) per user + date + device
  • 25+ DAX measures covering MRR, churn, feature adoption depth, and cohort retention
  • Numeric + display measure pairs — Power BI chart axes reject text; KPI cards need formatted strings
  • Cohort retention analysis by signup month — April 2024 cohort retains best at 56.2%

Project 03
AI Job Displacement & Reskilling Dashboard
Business Problem

Organisations and policymakers know AI disruption is happening — but they can't quantify where, how fast, or who is most at risk. Without structured data, reskilling budgets get allocated based on assumption rather than evidence. This dashboard was built to answer: which roles and industries need reskilling intervention first, and does reskilling actually translate to better salary outcomes?

Actionable Findings
01 Energy leads AI disruption intensity at 23.62 — the highest across all 8 industries — while also having a high automation risk of 46.9%. This double exposure makes Energy the highest-priority sector for workforce intervention.
02 Technology has the lowest AI replacement score at 45.39 — AI augments rather than replaces in this sector. Reskilling investment here yields workers who collaborate with AI tools, not workers who compete with them.
03 Reskilling increases average salary by $3,567 globally — but 41.13% of workers actually earned less after displacement. The average masks a deeply unequal outcome. Transportation gains most (+0.43%), Education loses most (−0.21%).
04 Skill Gap Index is flat at 50 across all 8 industries — no sector is meaningfully better prepared than any other. This means the reskilling problem is systemic, not sector-specific, and requires broad policy action rather than targeted industry programmes.
05 30% of jobs fall in the High risk category; the largest group (42%) is Medium risk — widespread near-threshold exposure. Teacher and Customer Support roles have the highest skill gap index and reskilling urgency simultaneously — priority candidates for programme investment.
Technical highlights
  • 6 categories of data quality issues resolved: NULLs, duplicates, inconsistent casing, salary outliers, invalid category variants, year string corruption
  • ROW_NUMBER() window function for deduplication — PARTITION BY job_id keeps first occurrence
  • CASE statement normalising 6 corrupt risk category variants to High / Medium / Low
  • salary_trend derived column from salary_change_percent thresholds — Positive (>2%), Negative (<−2%), Stable
  • 12+ DAX measures across automation risk, salary delta, reskilling urgency, and skill gap index
  • Skill Gap vs Reskilling Urgency scatter chart — two-dimensional view for prioritising intervention
