    Hi, I can help clean and structure your dataset quickly using Excel, Google Sheets, or Python depending on the file format. I can remove duplicates, standardize columns, handle missing values, fix inconsistent formatting, and return a clean dataset ready for analysis. I will also include a short summary of the cleaning steps and any useful observations, so you can clearly see what was changed. For a dataset up to 5,000 rows, I can usually complete the first clean version within a few days after receiving the file and any rules you want applied.
