Meet Your Mentor

Avan Vora

Hi, I'm Avan Vora. I'm an ex-Senior Analytics Manager with 10 years of experience in Analytics & Data Science across the USA and India.

I pursued my Masters from the US in 2012 and spent a decade there. I started as a Data Analyst, consulted with McKinsey and eventually built and led a team of analysts as a Senior Analytics Manager at Wayfair. I moved back to India in 2021 and worked as a Senior Product Analytics Lead at BrowserStack. In these 10 years, I have worked with Product Managers, Business Managers & non-technical stakeholders, addressing their data challenges.

Over the past year, I have taught and mentored over 250+ students. While teaching, I realized that there is a large gap between what is taught vs. what is actually used on the job. This is my attempt to solve that problem.

I find it fulfilling to help people realize their full potential and I hope to impact many more lives! Read more about my story.

What Our Students Say

Testimonials Slider

"I’m sharing this detailed review because, I believe people who put their heart into their work deserve recognition. If you're looking to elevate your data analysis skills, I highly recommend Avan's - Become a Better Data Analyst cohort—the case studies in this program are on a whole different level and can’t be compared to any of the guided projects you’ll find on YouTube. I recently had the privilege of participating in this cohort, and it was truly an exceptional learning experience. The structured case studies went beyond technical skills—they taught me how to think with a business mindset, ask the right questions to stakeholders, derive meaningful insights, and create impactful stories. Each case study encouraged teamwork and discussions, which helped me better understand problem-solving, developing hypotheses, and validating data. The dataset we worked on during the project was massive, similar to what you'd encounter in real-world scenarios. I learned how to combine multiple tables effectively to create a comprehensive master table for analysis, perform data cleaning, and write advanced SQL queries. The program also included a final presentation, which was incredibly helpful in understanding how to present analytical findings effectively. Avan went above and beyond by offering guidance on building a strong portfolio, optimizing LinkedIn profiles, and providing career advice. His class was very interactive, and his teaching style made every session so engaging and easy to follow. We never got bored for a moment!"

"I recently completed a data analyst course led by my mentor, Avan, and I am thoroughly impressed by the experience. The course was exceptionally well planned and structured, clearly reflecting Avan's thoughtfulness and dedication in its design. He has a unique ability to keep the classes engaging and ensures that every participant fully understands the material being taught. Not once did I feel bored during the sessions. One of the standout aspects of this course is its focus on real-world problems that data analysts often encounter. Unlike many other courses, this one doesn’t just emphasize analytical tools but covers the entire data analytics process. Avan taught us how to approach problems like a data analyst, break them down into manageable parts, and translate them into solvable data-driven solutions. Additionally, the course provided valuable insights on effective communication with stakeholders, an essential skill for any data professional. Throughout the course, I learned advanced techniques that I am confident will contribute to my growth as a data analyst. This course truly lives up to its name, and I am grateful for the knowledge and skills I have gained."

"I recommend Avan for anyone who’d like to have a tangible change in their career. I asked Avan if he could be my mentor at the most pivotal points in my career, where it was pertinent that I got the right advice - relevant advice that came from practical experience. And that’s exactly what I got from him. I’ve asked a lot of questions and there was not one instance where I didn’t have the takeaway I needed to draft my next step in whatever career challenge I had. He helped me understand what could be next step, and also went to the details of how to achieve them."

"I have completed the 'Become A Better Data Analyst' course mentored by Avan, can't thank him enough for setting up the clarity on what it takes and how it could be done. Avan is very approachable and takes additional effort to get your doubts resolved and provides post-course mentorship support. Don't think twice before signing up, the price of this course is a paltry for the value it offers. Rooting for Avan to scale this further."

Professional Testimonials

It was an absolute delight to have Avan on my team. His pod handled our trickiest analyses and consistently delivered error-free work and actionable recommendations, even adding insights that I didn't think to ask about. I could send Avan ambiguous requests and rely on him to frame them, own the analysis, and work with both technical and business partners to see the project through. He continually gets rave reviews from both direct reports and stakeholders.

Avan has been an exceptional analytics leader at Wayfair. He continuously identified and addressed key opportunities to improve post-order customer experience, while effectively analyzing and driving actionable insights from the large and complex data set (e.g. survey results, contact data, order/customer data, repeat rate). In addition, he built an extremely strong analytics team from scratch, while raising the hiring bar for broader organization and offering a hands-on coaching to lead his team’s ongoing success. Furthermore, he established an exceptional partnership with various cross-functional partners as an SME in Voice of the Customer and data analytics. I have been so fortunate to have worked with and learned from such an exceptional analytics and people leader over the last 3+ years.

What Makes A Great Analyst?

Technical Skills

Problem-Solving

Communication

Domain Expertise

Most analysts place too much emphasis on only technical skills when starting their careers. I have made the same mistake when I began my career. Over time, I realized that these tools are a means to achieve a result. What matters in the end is solving business problems where only technical skills are not enough. As a hiring manager who has conducted over 100 interviews, I understand the skills needed to crack a job. 

My goal is to make you a better analyst by teaching you all the skills you would use in a real job - through real-life projects.
