What I Do

As a Business Analyst, I focus on:

  • Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A): Building robust financial models to support budgeting, forecasting, and long-term planning
  • ERP Optimization: Improving system configurations, data structures, and reporting logic to align technology with business objectives
  • Data Analytics & Automation: Designing SQL-driven pipelines and automated reporting solutions that reduce manual effort and improve reliability
  • KPI Development: Translating strategy into measurable performance indicators for operational and executive teams
  • Process Improvement: Leveraging technology to streamline workflows, eliminate inefficiencies, and enhance internal controls
My Approach

Data collection should serve a strategic purpose, fostering transparency, accountability, and measurable progress. My approach combines analytical rigor with business acumen:

  • Understand the business problem first
  • Clearly document system architectures and data flow processes.
  • Design scalable, automated solutions
  • Deliver insights in a way that executives and stakeholders can act on immediately

I bridge the gap between finance teams, IT departments, and executive leadership—ensuring systems, data, and strategy work together seamlessly.
