Projects

📊 Netflix Global Content Trends (In Progress)

A data analysis project exploring regional differences in Netflix’s global library.

Tools: SQL, Excel, Tableau

Skills Applied: Data wrangling, storytelling with data, exploring user behavior across markets.

🗂️ Customer Support Tagging System – (Real-world initiative)

Impact: Helped inform customer experience & supply chain teams and reduced ticket volume for recurring issues.

Skills Applied: User empathy, cross-functional communication, identifying product opportunities through support data.
