## Headline

Business Analyst → Data Storyteller \|SQL · Power BI,Agile/Scrum,BRD &amp; UAT \| Driving 18–25% measurable business outcomes \| MBA Finance &amp; IT \| IIM Bangalore

## About

I turn ambiguous business problems into decisions backed by data\. As a Business Analyst at Unlox \(Bengaluru\), I own the full BA lifecycle — from stakeholder discovery and BRD/FRD documentation to Power BI dashboards, UAT sign\-offs, and post\-release impact tracking\. In 16\+ months, the work I've shipped has cut decision cycle time by 25% and improved lead conversion by 18%\. What makes me different: → I bridge finance and technology — rare for analysts who usually live in one lane → I think in systems: requirements → data model → dashboard → business outcome → I've operated in Agile/Scrum environments from day one, not just listed it as a skill → IIM Bangalore certified in Accounting &amp; Finance — I speak the language of the P&amp;L Before this, I interned as a Financial Analyst at Skillfied Mentor, where I applied SQL and Python \(pandas\) to risk modeling pipelines, achieving 15% better reporting accuracy\. My foundation is unconventional — UG in Biotechnology \(GITAM, 9\.0 CGPA\) — which gave me the discipline to design experiments, interpret complex data, and communicate findings to non\-technical stakeholders\. That's exactly what BA work is\. 📍 Currently based in Bengaluru \| Open to: Business Analyst · Data Analyst · MIS Executive · Product Analyst roles 🔍 Targeting companies where data actually moves decisions, not just decorates dashboards
