About Sanjana
Hello! My name is Sanjana Krishnamurthy, and I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Data Science. I have over four years of professional experience in data analysis, I've developed a deep understanding of Excel, especially in advanced functions like data visualization and automation. My background has not only equipped me with technical expertise but also with the skill to teach complex concepts in a way that’s easy to understand.
Throughout my career, I’ve trained new joiners in both job-specific tasks and Excel skills, and I've seen how a clear, simplified approach helps them quickly pick up essential skills. I enjoy breaking down concepts into manageable steps, making the learning process approachable and effective.
Teaching Excel isn’t just about sharing knowledge for me; it’s a way to reinforce my own learning as well. As a data science student, teaching allows me to stay refreshed on the fundamentals while building confidence and expertise in my students. I'm committed to creating an engaging, supportive learning environment where you feel confident and empowered to master Excel. Let’s dive in and make learning Excel both useful and enjoyable!
