What I'm looking for

I’m looking for part-time, remote roles in administration, business analysis, operations, learning & development, and business process improvement—where I can map processes, coordinate projects, and create practical documentation and training.

I am a seasoned professional with a background in investment banking and insurance, with deep experience in business analysis, systems support, administration/operations, process improvement, project coordination, and training & development. I translate complex business requirements into structured processes, documentation, and training materials.

Across financial services environments, I gathered and documented requirements, supported Waterfall and SCRUM environments, and contributed to system improvements. I designed and delivered training materials and workshops, facilitated onboarding and user support, and conducted process mapping to drive operational improvement initiatives.

Recently, I transitioned into Early Childhood Development as an owner and educator, applying instructional design, curriculum development, and learner assessment. I established and managed a preschool environment, facilitated structured learning, and handled learner observation, assessment, reporting, parent communication, and staffing.

I’m well suited for roles that need clear documentation, strong stakeholder management, and practical process improvement—especially where people onboarding, systems understanding, and continuous learning are essential.
