Data Analyst & BI Developer with 7+ years in financial services. I design end-to-end BI solutions that drive data-driven decisions and business growth.
Data Analyst & BI Developer based in Zaragoza, Spain, with 7+ years in financial services and a proven track record of designing end-to-end BI solutions that drive business impact. I combine deep domain expertise in financial operations with technical proficiency in Power BI, SQL, and Python to transform complex data into strategic insights. My passion lies in solving real-world business problems through data-driven decision-making and automated workflows.
Throughout my career at leading institutions including Lloyds Banking Group and Mars Capital, I successfully managed complex financial applications, portfolios, and regulatory requirements while maintaining 100% data accuracy in high-pressure environments. However, I recognized that my greatest professional fulfillment and impact came from uncovering hidden insights within data identifying behavioral patterns, optimizing workflows, and delivering strategic recommendations that drive measurable business outcomes.
Rather than staying in traditional finance, I made a deliberate career pivot to formalize and expand these capabilities. I completed a rigorous Data Technician Bootcamp (2025) and deepened my expertise in Power BI, SQL, and Python specifically focusing on building end-to-end BI solutions, ETL automation, and predictive modeling. Today, I bring a rare combination of financial domain knowledge and technical BI proficiency, enabling me to tackle complex analytical challenges that require both business acumen and technical precision.
I architect and deliver complete BI solutions: designing efficient data models, engineering automated ETL pipelines in Python and SQL, and building interactive Power BI dashboards that drive strategic decisions.
I combine analytical rigor with business acumen to analyze complex financial metrics, identify root causes, and deliver actionable recommendations that improve operations and reduce risk.
7+ years in regulated financial environments ensures I understand regulatory requirements, risk frameworks, and business operations and I consistently deliver measurable business outcomes.
Proven success in high-pressure environments handling millions of records, complex workflows, and strict compliance requirements I deliver excellence under demanding conditions.
