What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills in a collaborative environment, focusing on process optimization and data-driven decision-making.

I am an operations and analytics professional with a proven track record in optimizing business processes and enhancing data-driven decision-making. My experience spans various roles, including my current position as a Senior Payment Operations Specialist at Wise, where I lead operational improvements and develop dashboards to analyze performance metrics. My expertise in SQL and advanced data reporting has enabled me to streamline workflows and support compliance with global regulations.

Previously, I worked as a Digital Accessibility and Compliance Coordinator at Braille Works International, where I coordinated documentation compliance and produced financial reports.

I am passionate about leveraging data to drive strategic initiatives and improve organizational performance.
