About

Certified Business Analyst with nearly 5 years of experience in business analysis and data analytics across IT consulting, insurance, and financial services domains. I specialize in requirement gathering, stakeholder collaboration, and translating business needs into clear and actionable documentation such as BRDs, FRDs, and user stories. I have hands-on experience working in Agile and Scrum environments, actively facilitating sprint planning, backlog grooming, stand-ups, and UAT/SIT activities to ensure smooth and timely project delivery. My work involves close collaboration with cross-functional teams to drive system enhancements, process improvements, and successful production releases. I am proficient in SQL-based data analysis, reconciliation, and reporting to support informed business decisions. I regularly use tools like JIRA, Confluence, Power BI, Figma, and Lucidchart for documentation, tracking, and wireframing. Known for strong analytical thinking, clear communication, and a structured approach to problem-solving, I aim to bridge the gap between business and technology effectively. Open to opportunities where I can contribute as a Business Analyst, support data-driven initiatives, and deliver measurable business value.
