Most finance teams know their total spend. Very few know exactly where the overspending is happening — until it is too late.

I recently built a Finance Dashboard in Power BI that tracks Budget vs Actual Spend across departments and regions, designed to give leadership real-time visibility into financial performance.

What the dashboard delivers:

· Interactive KPIs with variance analysis to flag overspending at a glance · Slicers by department, region, and time period for flexible, self-serve exploration · Clear visual separation between on-track spend and budget overruns

The goal was simple: reduce the time between "something is off" and "we know what to fix."

When finance data is structured well and presented clearly, decision-makers do not need to wait for the end-of-quarter report to course-correct — they can act in the moment.

If your business needs better visibility into its financial data, I can help you build a dashboard tailored to your reporting needs.

Built an interactive Retail Performance Dashboard in Power BI to analyze sales, profit, customer behavior, and regional performance. The report includes four pages: Executive Overview, Product Performance, Customer Insights, and Regional Analysis. It features KPIs, trend analysis, category comparisons, top/bottom products, customer segmentation, and geographic insights. Interactive slicers allow users to explore data by year, category, segment, and region, helping businesses make data-driven decisions and identify growth opportunities.

Developed an interactive sales performance dashboard for a fictional online fashion boutique experiencing fluctuating revenue. I collected and cleaned transactional data, identified key trends in customer purchasing behavior, and visualized critical metrics such as average order value, conversion rates, and popular product categories. The dashboard provides actionable insights for inventory management and targeted marketing campaigns.
