Summary

Data-driven storyteller with a sharp eye for patterns and a passion for transforming raw numbers into game-changing insights. I build dashboards and visualizations that illuminate opportunities, sharpen decisions, and streamline processes—always with an eye on measurable impact. A natural collaborator, I thrive in fast-moving teams, adapting quickly and delivering rock-solid results.

As a financial analyst, I dive deep into the data—tracking performance, stress-testing scenarios, and surfacing strategies that strengthen the bottom line. My toolkit spans qualitative and quantitative analysis, contract management, forecasting, and a full suite of spreadsheet, accounting, and financial-management platforms. In short: I turn complex information into clear action plans that drive growth.
