Over Rahul
From Computer Science Engineering to an MBA in Finance to 5+ years turning messy data into confident business decisions — I've helped retail, FMCG, and logistics clients across Europe & America answer their toughest questions: where's growth coming from, why are customers leaving, what should we do next.
What genuinely motivates me is the challenge itself — taking an ambiguous, open-ended problem and finding the right way to break it down until the answer becomes obvious. I take ownership of that process end-to-end, and I care just as much about how I deliver as what I deliver: clear communication throughout, no surprises, and work that lands on time, every time. If I commit to a deadline, you can plan around it.
Based in Groningen, working across the Netherlands and EU.
