About Abhinav Reddy

I’m a data enthusiast with overall 3 years of experience which includes turning numbers into stories that help businesses make smarter decisions. I started out in software engineering, but I found myself more curious about the “why” behind the data than just the code. That curiosity led me to the world of analytics. Now at Lowe’s, I work with teams across sourcing, compliance, and product to build dashboards, uncover trends, and answer complex business questions using SQL, Power BI, and Excel. One of the most rewarding parts of my role has been helping reduce sourcing risk and improving how we visualize performance—projects that made a real difference. Before this, I was at Ceipal, where I automated lead allocation, built sales reports, and created customer heatmaps to support targeted campaigns. Whether it’s sales, supply chain, or product data, I love digging in and figuring out what’s working, what’s not, and where we can improve. What drives me is solving real business problems with data—not just crunching numbers, but creating clarity and impact. I’m excited to grow into roles that allow me to keep asking better questions, collaborating with great teams, and delivering insights that move the needle. If you\'re working on data-driven projects and need someone who’s both curious and execution-focused, let’s connect!
