What Others Say
Martin Knezevic
Ananda worked with me on a Power BI project for a couple of months. She is always on time and very professional. She is a domain expert and was able to finalize everything in a fraction of the time that I allocated for the project. Ananda is well versed in building very complex dashboards, and she knows how to wrangle data that is messy and to prepare accurate reports and dashboards. She is also very creative and has proposed (and later implemented) numerous original solutions. If you need something done in Power BI, hire Ananda and don’t look back
Kate Lastoskie
I had the privilege of managing a data science team that included Ananda. She’s intelligent, hardworking, and the kind of teammate everyone wants. When we brought on a new team member she stepped up without hesitation. She balanced her own demanding workload while training them on Boeing-internal tools for cloud data egress. Even with the extra responsibility, she never missed a deadline. She also presented her results clearly and confidently to executives, aircraft systems experts, and her peers, driving real safety and certification changes as a result. Any team would be lucky to have her.
João Paulo Paludo
I had the honor to work with Ananda in Flight Controls team at Embraer. She is an excellent professional, with good personal skills, which strongly contributed for team development and to achieve project goals. She is a very determined, intelligent and dedicated person, with very good technical knowledge and insights.
Alan Ferreiros
Ananda stands out for her skeptical thinking, assertiveness, and quick learning skills. Her knowledge over a wide range of subjects is a potential that she knows how to explore, being capable of proposing solutions that harmonize technical aspects to business interests. In addition, Ananda is continuously exploring new technological advances, which makes of her a relevant reference for new trends.

About Me
I’m drawn to challenging problems, especially those that bring together different areas and perspectives. Working across disciplines and collaborating with people from different backgrounds is what led me to data science.
What I find most exciting is taking something complex, breaking it down, and turning it into something useful. Whether it’s a model, a dashboard, or a simple analysis, the goal is always to build things that actually help people make better decisions.
Over time, I’ve learned that working with data is not just about tools or models — it’s about thinking clearly, asking the right questions, and focusing on what matters.
That’s also why I share what I learn and help others apply data in their own work.
Data just happens to be the tool.
