What I'm looking for

I am seeking a strategic, data-driven role where I can lead research and analytics to inform decisions, drive growth, mentor teams, and contribute to thought leadership in a collaborative organization.

I am a multidisciplinary analyst with expertise in research, business development, financial analysis, and administration. I combine data analytics, visualization, and strategic thinking to deliver actionable insights that drive growth and operational improvements.

In leadership roles I have designed and implemented data-driven strategies supporting new product and real estate project launches, improved forecasting accuracy, and increased profitability across organizations. I have led cross-functional teams and mentored junior analysts to build capacity in research methodology and analytics.

I have a strong record in business development, forging strategic partnerships, streamlining operations, and publishing research and policy work that reinforces organizational thought leadership. My work has produced measurable results such as increased lead conversion, faster time-to-market, and improved budgeting accuracy.

I hold a First Class B.Sc. in Political Science and certifications in business analysis, project management, and corporate strategy, and I seek to apply my blend of analytical rigor and strategic insight to roles that value data-driven decision-making and sustainable growth.
