I turn operational data into actionable insights through Power BI and KPI-driven improvements.
What I'm looking for
I’m an operations analyst focused on turning operational data into clear, actionable insight across automotive environments. Over 4+ years, I’ve supported GM, Ford, and Tier 1 operations by building reporting that leadership can rely on.
I specialize in Power BI dashboards and KPI scorecards, using trend analysis and root cause analysis to pinpoint recurring issues. I document processes, create structured resolution plans, and present evidence-based recommendations to stakeholders so operations stay efficient and on track.
In logistics and production roles, I analyze inventory, output, and shift performance data to align supply with delivery and customer requirements. I also plan and coordinate launches of new automated lines, tracking tasks to deadline and communicating progress with operational leaders.
I bring a continuous improvement mindset through Lean Six Sigma, corrective action planning, and standard operating procedures. I’m motivated by reporting rigor, process improvement, and data-informed decision-making that drives measurable outcomes.
