Subject: Application for Data Analyst

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to apply for the Data Analyst position at Lakeview Insights. I enjoy turning messy data into clear answers, and your focus on helping retailers decide with evidence matches the work I do every day.

At Marina Retail Group I built 12 Power BI dashboards that 80 store managers use each week, and my SQL analysis of slow-moving stock helped reduce dead stock by 18%. I also automated a weekly report in Python, which saved my team 10 hours every week.

I would be glad to discuss how I can bring the same care for data quality and clear communication to your team. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours sincerely,
Karthik Subramanian
