About Me
Hi, I'm Hanshitha Mahankali, a data-driven problem solver with experience across data analysis and application development.
I work with Python and SQL to analyze, clean, and interpret data, and I also use my development background to build reliable applications and workflows that support data-driven decisions. My experience spans exploratory data analysis, working with structured databases, and developing modern web applications.
I'm interested in roles where data, technology, and real-world impact come together. I enjoy continuous learning, solving practical problems, and building solutions that are clear, scalable, and meaningful.
