ABOUT ME

Mercy Gabriel Ikulayo pictures

Hi, I'm Mercy

I’m a chocolate addict with zero plans to quit, I'm not sure if I'm an introvert or an extrovert but I know that I'm 80% sanguine.

I'm a mom, who enjoys joggling being a mom and having a career in tech. I'm not a book addict but I have read 30 books in the last three months including "Smart Money Woman" by Aresa Ugwu, "The $100 Startup" by Chris Guillebeau, "Women and money" by Suze Orman, "The Richest Man in Babylon" by George S. Clason among others."

I love colors, creativity and numbers.

As a tech lover who started out as a self-taught powerpoint designer, I’ve always been drawn to technology and design. I started was a self-taought PowerPoint, experimenting with slides and animations, which sparked my love for visual communication. As I got more into graphic design, I learned how to make messages clearer through images. Then, website design taught me how to combine creativity with functionality. I have done market research and investor pitch deck for startups and existing businesses. Eventually, my curiosity about data storytelling brought me to data analytics, where I’ve learned to back up decisions with insights. Now, I bring it all together—design, market research, and data analysis—to help you make data-driven decisions and visualize insights creatively. If you’re looking to combine imagination with actionable insights, Then, I’m the data analyst that you need.

I'd love to be your Data Analyst
