Richa Mahendru

Hello, I'm Richa, and my passion lies in becoming a business analyst within the financial industry, specializing in financial modelling. With a robust foundation with graduation in commerce and the ongoing pursuit of a graduate certificate in Business Insights and Analytics, I offer a unique fusion of financial acumen and data analytics proficiency. In the professional arena as a CS&O analyst at NatWest, I harnessed the power of Excel to conduct in-depth analyses to identify patterns of fraudulent transactions on customers' accounts. The reports I generated not only illuminated trends but also served as a crucial tool in further evaluations by the fraud team. This meticulous approach played a significant role in fostering trust in the bank's commitment to its security. Further, I systematically gathered and formatted customer data, creating both routine and ad-hoc reports for peak customer hours and the most used platforms such as online or branch. Utilized advanced data visualization tools such as Power BI and SPSS to present key insights, facilitating informed decision-making for optimizing customer service processes and overall operational efficiency. My commitment to continuous learning and professional growth led me to pursue a business analytics course at Humber College. In my educational pursuits, I honed my analytical skills through projects involving comparative financial statement analysis for industry players like ABC Technologies and Barlyn Technologies for investment decision-making and conducted calculations of key financial ratios assessing liquidity, long-term solvency, asset management, and profitability. The recognition received for achieving a grade of 95% underscores my commitment to excellence in financial decision-making. Additionally, my proficiency in Python was put to practical use in creating a software solution for a college admissions team. This solution, categorizing students into different departments based on computed GPAs, was not only a testament to my technical skills but also received a final grade of 90%, affirming its effectiveness. I am dedicated to leveraging this unique combination of skills to contribute effectively to the success of any organization I work with. If my skills and experiences resonate with your organization's needs, I welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your team and mission. Feel free to reach out at dmricha12@gmail.com
