Shiny Porwal - Portfolio

About me

Hey there! 👋 I'm Shiny Porwal, a passionate and curious individual currently diving into the world of Information Systems at California State University, Long Beach. 🌐 My journey has led me to explore the intricate dance of global supply chain operations, with a special focus on the vibrant Port of Long Beach.

🚀 My adventure includes being a Research Assistant, where I've delved into the fascinating realm of electronics supply chains. I'm all about optimizing efficiency, building robust relationships with suppliers, and making data-driven decisions that pack a punch. 💡

In my previous life as a Business Intelligence Lead at Shantilal and Company in India, I wore many hats – from boosting conversion rates to automating reports and even founding a peer mentorship program. 🌟

When not immersed in the world of data, you'll find me crafting impactful stories through various projects, whether it's exploring trends in animal shelters or diving into the hustle of Black Friday sales. 📊

Excited to connect, collaborate, and explore new possibilities! Let's make some magic together. ✨
