The Story Behind
the Data

I'm Dharmik — a Data Analyst with a background in Mechanical Engineering and a Master's degree in E-Government at the University of Koblenz. I transitioned into the data world because I love finding meaning in numbers that others overlook.

At Metal Cast Engg. Inc., I built Power BI dashboards that gave leadership real-time visibility into business KPIs, and optimized Databricks pipelines to deliver a 35% reduction in reporting time across enterprise-scale datasets. Every decision I made was guided by one principle: data should be fast, clean, and trustworthy.

Currently pursuing my MSc in E-Government, I'm applying AI/ML concepts to public-sector data challenges — bridging the gap between government services and modern data engineering. I thrive in multicultural environments, speak three languages, and bring a detail-oriented, self-driven mindset to every project.

Featured Work

Data-driven solutions built with Python, SQL, Power BI, and cloud platforms.

📈
SQL Python Power BI NLP
Marketing Analytics Platform
Investigated why customer engagement and conversion rates were declining despite increased marketing spend. Built a full analytics workflow — data cleaning in SQL Server, sentiment analysis on customer reviews using Python and NLTK VADER, and an interactive Power BI dashboard presented to stakeholders.
🌍
Python Scikit-learn ARIMA / XGBoost SHAP Power BI Streamlit Docker
CO2 Emissions Analysis
End-to-end forecasting pipeline replicating a 2025 peer-reviewed study on daily CO₂ emissions (Carbon Monitor) across 4 world regions. Engineered lag, rolling, and calendar features and benchmarked ARIMA against Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and XGBoost on a chronological split — Random Forest reached R² ≈ 0.90, with SHAP for model interpretability. Delivered as a Power BI dashboard and a deployed Streamlit app, containerised with Docker and CI via GitHub Actions.
