Hello!
I am Disha

Data, automation & reporting — turning messy data into dashboards people actually use.

I'm aData & Business AnalystData & AI Engineer
About Me

A creative mind, sharpened by data.

I started in nuclear-sector data validation, moved into business development analytics in India, and now build BI and automation for a manufacturer in the UK. The common thread is that I like fixing the part of reporting nobody trusts — inconsistent KPIs, manual spreadsheets and numbers that don't reconcile.

Alongside my work I mentor students in SQL, Python and statistics, and my MSc dissertation tests how missing-data methods affect explainable AI.
