About

I am an aspiring Business and Data Analyst with a strong foundation in technology, analytics, and cross-functional collaboration. I specialize in bridging business needs with technical solutions to drive process improvement and data-informed decisions. Through my recent Winternship at Synchrony, I worked in an Agile environment, contributing to backend and frontend components, data flow logic, and user-focused improvements. This experience strengthened my ability to translate requirements into practical technical solutions while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. In my consulting work with 50+ small business clients, I partnered directly with stakeholders to understand business goals, analyze performance metrics, and design digital solutions that improved engagement and lead generation. I am currently seeking entry-level opportunities in Business Analysis, Data Analysis, or Program/Project Analysis where I can contribute analytical thinking, technical curiosity, and a strong business mindset.
