Background

About Christopher Barry

I am a Senior Data Analyst with 5+ years transforming fragmented data systems into automated business solutions. I recently overhauled enterprise reporting infrastructure using Power BI and Python, reducing processing time by 40% and identifying $11.6M in cost optimization opportunities through operational data analysis. I excel at building end-to-end data pipelines and presenting actionable insights to executive stakeholders. My experience spans performance improvement, financial analysis, and data architecture design, blending technical expertise with business strategy focus. I hold a BA in Economics from UC Berkeley and have deep expertise in Python, SQL, and Power BI. I'm proficient in Power BI (DAX, Power Query), SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL), and Python for data analysis, with growing experience in ETL development and data pipeline design. Currently focused on data architecture - connecting backend systems and building robust data structures that scale. I'm actively developing toward data engineering roles while maintaining my foundation in business analytics. I'm seeking opportunities in data analytics, business intelligence, and systems analysis where I can continue automating processes, building data solutions, and supporting strategic business decisions.
