Alexa Ighodaro from Nigeria is a Detail-oriented Data Analyst with proficiency in working with SQL, Excel, Tableau, Power BI, and Python. Passionate about analyzing and visualizing data to make informed business decisions. Alexa who has worked on data analysis projects says, “Some people believe data science/analytics to be a field that requires high coding abilities and society has trained us to believe the male gender mostly handles coding. There is a perception that data science is a manly profession as it involves statistics and coding.”

Ighodaro believes universities should be more open to detailing what technical tasks data analysis entails as this would encourage more women to participate.
