About Me

Get to know me better

David Lupau

I'm building a career in data analytics, combining technical skills in Power BI, Python, and SQL with a strong foundation in business consulting and stakeholder communication.

Currently completing my BSc in Data Science and pursuing Microsoft PL-300 certification, I'm developing expertise through academic projects (including machine learning analysis of workforce data) and professional application of data visualization and statistical analysis.

My background in consulting has taught me that the best data work starts with understanding the business problem, not just the technical solution. I approach analytics with curiosity about what stakeholders actually need, not just what data can show.

I'm looking for junior data analyst opportunities where I can apply my analytical mindset and consulting skills while continuing to grow my technical depth. Particularly interested in roles where data drives real business impact, not just reporting.
