About Me
Telling data stories that move business forward.
I'm Kuku Faruq Olabiyi, an engineer turned data analyst who finds meaning in numbers that help businesses make smarter decisions.
Every dashboard I build tells a business story one that turns performance metrics into clarity, and clarity into growth.
Because behind every dataset, there’s a narrative about customers, performance, infrastructures, and opportunity waiting to be told.
And that’s the kind of storytelling that drives me.
