About

Hi, I'm Tanya Shapiro!

I’m an independent data consultant with a passion for helping businesses unlock the value of their data. Drawing on six years of data and analytics experience in the insurance industry, I’ve developed a holistic understanding of how data can influence every facet of a business and impact overall strategy. I apply a data product management mindset to help clients tackle a variety of problems within their analytics pipeline. From defining business problems and KPIs, to setting up infrastructure to support analytics, to creating and streamlining reports that inform business decisions—I'm here to help with every part of the process!

Throughout my work experience, I’ve built an arsenal of technical skills to battle data-specific issues, accruing coding proficiency in SQL, Python, R, and JavaScript. I’m also familiar with other products commonly found in modern tech stacks: data warehousing (AWS Redshift, MongoDB), ETL tools (FiveTran), business intelligence apps (Looker, PowerBI, Shiny), and CRM systems (Salesforce, HubSpot, PipeDrive).

In addition to my freelance work, I love supporting the online open-source community. In the past, I’ve partnered with amazing groups like R-Ladies, Women Who Code, and Workshops for Ukraine to share my knowledge of data viz design and to help others develop their technical skills.
