What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters growth, values collaboration, and utilizes my finance expertise.

I am a dedicated Business Development Consultant with a strong foundation in finance and strategic planning, currently pursuing my MBA with a concentration in Finance. My academic journey has been marked by excellence, achieving a GPA of 3.9 and consistently being on the Honor Roll. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in October 2023, where I also maintained a high GPA of 3.7. My education has equipped me with the analytical skills necessary to drive business growth and improve operational efficiencies.

In my recent role as a Business Development Consultant, I successfully utilized my MBA-level skills to enhance referral sourcing and revenue growth for a healthcare clinic. By conducting thorough market research and implementing targeted outreach strategies, I was able to strengthen relationships with local healthcare providers, resulting in a significant increase in patient intake. My experience also includes technical support roles, where I honed my problem-solving and communication skills, ensuring customer satisfaction and operational excellence.
