About Me

Data-Driven
Insight-Focused

I'm a Business Analytics graduate from UNC Wilmington (4.0 GPA), with a background that bridges data analytics & business decisions, giving me a uniquely structured approach to solving analytical problems.

With 3+ years of experience as a Business Intelligence Specialist, I've built dashboards, automated reporting pipelines, and translated complex datasets into clear executive-level insights using Tableau, Power BI, Alteryx, SQL, and Python.

I'm actively pursuing Business Intelligence Reporting roles where I can combine technical depth with cross-functional collaboration to drive real business impact.
