What I'm looking for

Seeking a role as a Business Analyst or Back-End Developer. In these roles, I've developed a unique blend of technical, business, and analytical skills. I have years of experience with master data management data, having done the data migration for Store/Supplier/Product data from legacy MDM to Stibo STEP. I bring the skills to bridge the gap between business needs and technical execution.

I am an expert Database Developer with extensive experience in Business Analysis and Technical Project Management. My career has been dedicated to optimizing processes and enhancing data management systems, which has allowed me to deliver significant improvements in efficiency and effectiveness. I am currently looking to return to the IT field as a Business Analyst, where I can leverage my skills to drive impactful business solutions.

During my tenure at CVS Health, I successfully saved over 200 hours in development time by proposing an alternate design for the Retail Data Warehouse Information system. Another initiative I was able to reduce batch load time by over 60% allowing dependent job streams to begin much earlier. My role has involved managing multiple technical projects, migrating MDM data, data integration of various data sets into downstream systems, mentoring interns, and facilitating business requirement meetings, which honed my ability to translate complex requirements into actionable technical specifications.

In addition to my technical skills, I have a strong background in creating comprehensive documentation, including business requirement documents and process flow diagrams. I am proficient in SQL, PL/SQL, and various database management systems, which enables me to write complex queries and develop efficient data processing solutions. I am passionate about using my expertise to help organizations make informed decisions and achieve their business objectives.
