Project manager and data-driven equity research analyst focused on improving financial data quality.
What I'm looking for
I am a project manager and equity research data analyst with experience driving cross-functional initiatives to improve financial data quality across APAC and EMEA. I blend hands-on data validation with stakeholder engagement to deliver measurable improvements.
At Bloomberg I led projects that improved product quality and processing efficiency, personally delivering major quality gains for top-ranked companies and building dashboards for near real-time performance tracking. I manage vendor resources, produce clear instruction documentation, and accelerate issue resolution.
My background includes financial due diligence and audit exposure, where I applied valuation techniques, dynamic Excel models, and robust review processes to support accurate financial reporting and investment decisions. I have practical experience using BQL, Power BI, SQL, and Python for data validation and analysis.
I bring a pragmatic, results-oriented approach, focused on driving operational efficiency, root-cause remediation, and continuous product improvement in data-centric financial environments.
