Hello all. Need advice. My job requires me to be quite technical, and I’ve finally come to the realization that this is not what I want to do. Any tips for a 1st year senior (working as a data analyst/business analyst) looking to transition into a more creative/non technical role?

Can I pm you? We should just switch roles. I'm not motivated to do the non tech consulting i am in and want a data analytics tech role.

Yes, you can.

Yes! Gravitate towards marketing strategy is my first thought but drop me a DM if you want to chat more.

Also if anyone could refer me in their company, that would be great.
