United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Infosys Consulting, I led data strategy, BI, and AI analytics programs for FinTech and banking clients, including an AI-driven merchant churn model and enterprise privacy reporting across six functional organizations. I also delivered a CFO-level business case for an AI-enabled call center transformation projecting $50M+ in cost savings.
Previously, I built 35-year project finance models for Texas Central’s $20B high-speed rail project and supported FP&A, forecasting, investor reporting, and investment analysis across Xebec Realty’s 10-project development portfolio. I bring an MBA in Finance from SMU and translate complex financial and data capabilities into executive-level decisions.
