Hi, I'm Arina Rud — most people call me Arisha. I am a finance and reporting professional based in Sydney.

I worked for more than 15 years in finance and reporting in Moscow, including in film production. My work included financial reports, payment schedules, expense reports, management reports and documentation for senior leaders and investors.

After moving to Australia, I decided to build my skills in data analysis and health reporting. I am studying Excel, Power BI, SQL, basic statistics and Python. I am also creating portfolio projects using public NSW health data.

My goal is to work in a reporting analyst, data reporting, business support or project support role. I want to help teams make better decisions from accurate and well-organised data.

Portfolio case study Project 01

NSW ED Target Performance
Metro vs Regional Portfolio Case Study

Practice question: How is NSW ED within-target performance changing over time, and how do metro and regional results compare?

Excel KPI definitions Trend analysis Metro vs Regional
−4.7 pp
Metro discharge within 4 hrs
Jan–Mar → Jul–Sep 2025

Regional discharge within 4 hrs

30.0%

Key findings

The project compares metro and regional performance over time. It looks at which measures are improving or declining, and where results may need more detailed review.

Interpretation: Some measures appear weaker than others. This may point to patient flow or capacity issues, but more data would be needed before making a final conclusion.

Data & definitions

Source: Public NSW health performance reporting / portfolio dataset notes. All metrics are reported as % within target.

  • Discharged within 4 hours: % of ED presentations discharged within 4 hours.
  • SSU within 4 hours: % admitted to ED short stay unit within 4 hours.
  • Admit/transfer within 6 hours: % admitted to hospital or transferred within 6 hours.
  • 12 hours or less: % with total ED time ≤ 12 hours.

Data checks

  • Checked for missing values and percentage values outside the 0–100% range.
  • Checked the metro and regional groupings used in the analysis.
  • Checked date ordering and percentage-point change calculations.
  • Noted any incomplete or unclear data in a QA log.

Caption example: "Discharge within 4 hours declined in both cohorts, with a larger drop observed in Metro LHDs by Jul–Sep 2025."

Main findings & next questions

  • Which Local Health Districts are driving the biggest changes?
  • Do attendance numbers or patient mix explain some of the results?
  • Could hospital capacity data help explain the weaker measures?

Project outputs

  • Excel workbook with pivot tables, QA notes and charts
  • One-page summary with simple findings and chart notes
  • Notes on assumptions, limitations and data sources
