What I'm looking for

I am seeking a remote role in data analytics or project management where I can apply AI and data visualization to drive impact, work with cross-functional teams, and contribute to scalable, grant-funded initiatives.

I am a driven business analyst and project manager with over five years of experience delivering data-driven digital transformation across health, research, and education sectors. I have led multidisciplinary virtual teams, developed AI-powered models and recommender systems, and built interactive dashboards using SQL and Power BI to inform executive decisions and support funding proposals.

I combine technical expertise in Python, machine learning, cloud platforms and data visualization with strong grant management and stakeholder coordination skills. I seek to apply these strengths in a remote data analytics or project management role to scale impact and accelerate innovation.
