Data storyteller meets business strategist.

I don't just work with data,  I dig into why it matters and stay involved until it drives a real outcome. With a Master's in Business Analytics from SNHU and 4 years across gaming, healthcare, and financial services (Blue Hub Capital, Medline Industries, Head Digital Works), I turn complex datasets into decisions stakeholders can act on. 

I've cut reporting turnaround from 6 hours to 90 minutes, improved accuracy by 22% across a $30M implementation, reduced post-go-live defects by 30%, and analyzed 500K+ customer records to uncover engagement drivers that lifted campaign ROI by 18%. 

Now I'm targeting roles where clean data, fast reporting, and cross-functional execution aren't nice-to-haves,  they're the product.
