I'm a Business Analyst at KPMG and a graduate student in the MS in Business Analytics program at the University of Florida, specializing in business intelligence, data storytelling, and analytics-driven strategy. At KPMG, I’ve optimized over 250 annual financial reports by streamlining documentation workflows and automating Excel-based processes using XLOOKUP, PivotTables, and VBA. My work supports internal reporting accuracy and drives operational efficiency, allowing leadership to make faster, data-informed decisions. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify data gaps, improve report delivery timelines, and build tailored reporting solutions aligned with business needs. Beyond client work, I’ve led pro bono analytics projects through KPMG’s national nonprofit program, delivering insights through Power BI, Alteryx, and text analytics to support DEI strategies, resource planning, and geographic equity. Sample Projects: • GRID Alternatives – Led demographic and sentiment analysis to inform DEI strategy • STEM Library Lab – Developed dashboards and data pipelines for engagement and inventory tracking • Urban Justice Center – Delivered ZIP-code level insights to enhance equitable service distribution Currently building advanced skills through graduate coursework in BI systems, SQL, Python, and statistical modeling. I'm passionate about transforming raw data into actionable insights and am exploring new opportunities in business intelligence and data analytics. I’m always interested in opportunities that allow me to combine technical expertise with strategic thinking to deliver meaningful, data-informed insights - lets connect!
