Hi, I'm Yash Chandaiya

Analytics Lead & Machine Learning Consultant

I transform complex business data into actionable insights using machine learning, statistical analysis, executive dashboards, and data visualization to drive better decisions.

Yash Chandaiya
Analytics + consulting Building practical ML, BI, and executive decision systems.

About Me

With nearly a decade of experience across analytics, machine learning, BI, and consulting delivery, I specialize in building decision systems that deliver measurable business impact.

I began in structured project management and evolved into leading advanced analytics engagements for global enterprise clients. At Quantzig, I own client relationships end-to-end, from scoping and predictive model design to C-suite presentations and QBR/YBR leadership.

My strength is the bridge between technical depth and executive clarity. I do not just build dashboards or models; I turn them into operating rhythms, stakeholder narratives, and decisions that business teams can act on.

Academically backed by a Post Graduate Program in Data Science & Business Analytics from UT Austin McCombs and Great Lakes Institute of Management.
