My expertise lies in calendar management, data-driven reporting, and workflow optimization using advanced tools like Power BI, SQL, Excel, and Notion. I have a proven ability to enhance operational efficiency, deliver actionable insights, and foster effective communication with stakeholders.

In my role as an Executive Assistant and Data Analyst at Samasource, I managed complex calendars for senior executives, optimizing schedules and reducing conflicts by 20%.
