What I'm looking for

I want to build data products and interactive Tableau dashboards that improve configuration accuracy and operational decisions—leveraging SAP, data integration, and analytics to reduce supply chain risks and drive continuous process improvement.

I’m a Product Data Analyst focused on turning SAP configuration data into accurate, decision-ready products. At Steelcase, I integrated data models using SAP Variant Configuration (ABAP), building complex data products with 10+ configurable options and applying rules and restrictions to ensure product accuracy and functionality.

I also bring a strong analytics and process-optimization background from publishing and engineering. As an editor at MDPI, I used text mining and citation analysis to identify research trends and data-driven editorial decisions, and I tracked review-process performance across 250+ manuscripts. Earlier, as a Production Engineer in a paint plant, I created first-time guidelines and quality procedures, reducing defects to below 10% and improving operations through data reporting with Excel.
