Architecture for your data.Introductions for your people.

I'm Bella — a Northeastern business analytics graduate who builds reporting and automation companies actually trust, and who spends the rest of her time connecting overlooked young talent with the employers searching for exactly them.

01Two practices, one person

I split my time between clean data and good people.

I

For businesses

Freelance business architecture: Power BI dashboards, semantic models, DAX, Power Query pipelines, row- and object-level security, and Power Automate workflows that retire the manual work nobody wants to own. I stay through the last mile — the slide deck that makes the number make sense to a stakeholder.

For people

A recruiter without an industry or a company attached. I meet young professionals who are being overlooked in a brutal market, learn what they're genuinely good at, and introduce them to founders and hiring teams who need exactly that. No fee, no funnel — just a network built one honest conversation at a time.

02About

Analytics is the craft. People are the point.

I'm a BSBA graduate from Northeastern University — Business Analytics major, Data Science minor — with a deep interest in sharpening how companies report, decide, and automate the manual work that quietly eats their week.

Alongside that, I have a genuine obsession with meeting new people: understanding someone's skill set, passions, and prospects, then helping them find their professional match. The market is brutal right now, and an entire population of talented young professionals is being overlooked. I want to know them — and I want to know the recruiters and founders looking for a real performer.

Where I'm heading: business strategy and consulting on a company's BI stack, informed as much by market, industry, and finance research as by the data model itself.

03Services

A BI stack that holds up, and the words to explain it.

Engagements run from a single dashboard rebuild to an end-to-end reporting architecture with automation and enablement wrapped around it.

Technical — BI stack

01

Power BI development

Certified dashboard design and build — from blank canvas to a report leadership opens every Monday.

02

DAX & data modeling

Measure logic, time intelligence, and star-schema models that stay fast as the data grows.

03

Power Query & cleanup

Transformation pipelines that turn messy exports into a source you can actually rely on.

04

Security modeling

Row-level and object-level security so the right person sees exactly the right slice.

05

Data architecture consulting

Microsoft Fabric and BI-stack guidance: what to centralize, what to retire, what to build next.

06

Workflow automation

Power Automate flows that remove the recurring manual task instead of documenting it.

Communication & strategy

  • 07

    Stakeholder reporting

    Insight presented the way decision-makers need to receive it — clear, sourced, and short.

  • 08

    Executive data storytelling

    Translating technical findings for non-technical audiences without flattening the nuance.

  • 09

    Professional narrative writing

    Project summaries, KPI decks, and the written framing that makes work legible.

  • 10

    Cross-functional liaison

    Sitting between data teams and business stakeholders so both sides ship the same thing.

A report is only finished when someone who 
doesn't work in the data can act on it.

What the work 
actually looks like.

Client work lives behind NDAs, so these are representative mockups — the report layouts I design and the query, measure, and transformation patterns I write.

05 — Let's talk

Hiring, job hunting, 
or drowning in manual reporting?

Every one of those conversations is one I want to have. Send a note with a sentence about where you are — I answer all of them.
