About

From Chemistry Labs to Data Dashboards — Here's My Story. I started with an MSc in Chemistry, but what always drove me was finding patterns — making sense of numbers and turning messy information into something meaningful. That curiosity took me through 2.5 years at Tech Mahindra, where I analysed thousands of customer interactions, tracked KPIs in Excel, identified trends that improved resolution time by 30%, and earned the BRAVO Award twice + personal recognition from our Vice President. Today, I work as a Data Analyst at Datastream Pvt Ltd on U.S. government legislative publishing projects — and here's what my day looks like: 🔹 Extracting & transforming large volumes of legislative data (Bills, CFR, FR) from PDF/Word/HTML into structured XML 🔹 Running SQL queries for data validation, gap analysis & consistency checks 🔹 Building Power BI dashboards for reporting & trend analysis 🔹 Raising & tracking JIRA tickets for defects & root cause analysis 🔹 Ensuring 100% data accuracy before publishing to client systems What I bring to every team: ✅ Sharp eye for data quality — I catch what others miss ✅ End-to-end ownership — from raw files to insight-ready data ✅ Cross-functional collaboration — engineers, stakeholders, clients ✅ Self-driven upskilling — SQL, Power BI, Python — all alongside full-time work 🎯 Currently open to Data Analyst, Data Quality Analyst, and BI Analyst roles. 📩 Let's connect — samikshapokale6@gmail.com
