About

Hi, I’m Aishwarya — a data analyst with a software engineering background, turning complex data into clear, actionable stories for business teams. After 4 years as a software engineer in the automobile domain, I took a career break for motherhood and used that phase to intentionally rebuild my career in analytics. During this time, I strengthened my skills in SQL, Power BI, Excel, and Python, and completed structured programs like the IBM Data Analyst Professional Certificate and Microsoft’s Power BI Analyst Professional Certificate. Today, I focus on driving growth through insights and automation. I enjoy designing clean, executive-ready dashboards, optimizing SQL queries, and building analytical models that help stakeholders make timely decisions. My projects span sales analysis, operations reporting, and end‑to‑end dashboards where I own everything from data cleaning to visual storytelling. I also share my learning journey openly on LinkedIn through case studies, challenges, and project breakdowns — especially to inspire women returning to work and professionals transitioning into data. If you are looking for someone who can bridge business questions with technical execution — from SQL and data modeling to Power BI reporting and clear narratives — I’d be happy to connect.
