I am Alexandra

Welcome to my portfolio! I’m a creative professional with a background in visual arts and customer service who has recently discovered a passion for data analysis. By melding creative insights with a rational, analytic approach, I strive to transform data into solutions.

My Journey

My career began in customer service, working for vibrant companies centered on arts and crafts and wellbeing. I learned firsthand the art of communication and the value of attentive support in every interaction. Over time, I realized there were greater opportunities for me in the field of data analytics—where I could harness my natural analytical skills to tackle complex, data-specific challenges.

My Unique Blend of Skills

Skilled Communicator: My experience in customer service taught me to always go above and beyond for people, ensuring clear and effective stakeholder collaboration.
Creative Vision: A background in the visual arts enables me to bring a distinctive flare to every project, enhancing communication and bolstering company image.
Analytical Acumen: I pair creativity with a rational, problem-solving mindset that sharpens my ability to uncover data-driven insights and solutions.

Training & Learning

I am mostly self-taught, diving into the world of data analysis through hands-on YouTube tutorials from channels like Alex the Analyst. I quickly learned to not just follow but experiment—repurposing exercises to gain a deeper understanding of what happens “under the hood.” This curiosity has been instrumental in shaping my analytical skills.

Projects & Practical Experience

Stakeholder Project: Airbnb Analysis in Greater Montreal

In this project, I explored the dynamics of the Airbnb market in the Greater Montreal area.

Tools Used: Python (with Pandas) and Tableau
Highlights: I identified problem areas and formulated data-driven recommendations to improve stakeholder outcomes.

Using Excel, I analyzed a bike sharing database and developed a visually appealing dashboard that mapped subscribers and rental trends against weather conditions.

Outcome: The project showcases my ability to blend data insights with creative visualization and storytelling.

And there’s more on the way—my portfolio continues to expand as I embrace new challenges and deepen my expertise.

Aspirations

I am committed to continuously expanding my knowledge and skills in data analytics. Producing efficient, impactful work is at the core of my ambitions. My goals include leveraging data to drive intelligent decision-making and pushing creative boundaries in every project I undertake.

I have an innate knack for color and visual storytelling—a skill honed through years of creative practice. I believe in the power of one-to-one relationships and pride myself on providing consistent, dedicated performance at work. My core values—equality, efficiency, and respect—guide every step of my professional journey.
