A seasoned Data Analyst with 5+ years of dedicated experience, backed by over 14 years in the IT industry. Proven ability to deliver actionable results.

I drove organizational change by leading dynamic teams of analysts across 30+ departments. My approach combines technical precision with clear communication, breaking down data silos and creating unified information systems that deliver tangible business outcomes.
