  4. Data Modeling:
    • Applying statistical models to analyze relationships between variables.
    • Conducting regression analysis, time series analysis, or clustering to uncover deeper insights.
    • Building predictive models to forecast future trends or outcomes.
  5. Data Visualization:
    • Creating charts, graphs, and dashboards to present data insights in a clear and understandable way.
    • Using tools like Tableau, Power BI, Excel, or Python libraries (e.g., Matplotlib, Seaborn) to create visualizations.
  6. Reporting:
    • Preparing reports and presentations to communicate findings to stakeholders.
    • Providing actionable recommendations based on data insights.
    • Collaborating with teams across the organization to understand their data needs and provide relevant insights.
