ABOUT PIYUSHA GURUNG

Github Profile: https://github.com/piyushagurungMy journey into business and data began with a strong interest in technology and problem-solving. I pursued a BSc (Hons) in Computing at Leeds Beckett University (2019–2023), where I built a solid foundation in programming, systems, and analytical thinking. During this time, I also explored opportunities beyond the classroom, gaining experience in digital marketing and strategy. These roles helped me understand how businesses rely on both creativity and data to grow and adapt in fast-changing markets.In 2021, I stepped into the professional world as a Social Media Marketing Intern at The British College (Feb–Aug 2021). That experience introduced me to campaign management, content creation, and tracking performance metrics. Soon after, I joined Claé Creatives as a Digital Marketing Executive (Aug 2021–Sep 2022), where I managed digital campaigns, conducted market research, and delivered insights on customer engagement. This role taught me the importance of aligning business goals with data-driven strategies.I later worked as a Brand Strategist at Digity Branding Agency (Sep 2022–Feb 2023), where I collaborated with design and content teams to plan long-term strategies and present results directly to clients. These months sharpened my ability to translate numbers and research into actionable recommendations. Each client project reinforced my belief that good business decisions depend on the right blend of creativity, communication, and analytics.In 2024, I moved into operations, working as an Operations Associate at Agile Academy in Austin, Texas (Feb 2024–Present). Here, I focused on improving workflows, maintaining data accuracy, and using tools like Excel, SQL, and Power BI to monitor performance and support decision-making. This role allowed me to bring together my technical skills and business understanding, helping teams stay on track while delivering measurable results.Currently, I am pursuing my MSc in Business Analytics at the University of New Haven (2024–2026). My coursework has covered areas like Business Forecasting, Data Mining, Database Management, and Power BI Dashboarding, giving me a strong analytical toolkit to complement my professional experiences. As I look ahead to graduation in 2026, I am eager to apply my skills in business analytics, visualization, and strategy to roles where I can help organizations uncover insights, solve problems, and create long-term value.
