MARICRIS COLLINS
@crissycollins
Experienced business analyst specializing in regulatory CRM, requirements, and customer-centered project delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a business analyst with 20+ years helping organisations deliver enterprise software that works in real-world environments. I translate complex requirements into clear user journeys, user stories, acceptance criteria, and test-ready documentation that teams can confidently build and deliver.
Across regulatory, risk, and governance contexts, I strengthen stakeholder alignment through facilitation, sprint coordination, and ongoing communication. I’ve managed form and compliance solution work, delivered customer-facing suites used as frameworks for new capabilities, and coordinated UAT across multiple locations and service streams.
I also bring strong systems and change experience—investigating defects and gaps, shaping process maps, and supporting adoption through training and change activities. I enjoy mentoring and empowering teams to build self-service cultures while maintaining reliable delivery, measurable outcomes, and continuous improvement.
