Data Business Analyst delivering data-driven insights, automation, and executive-ready dashboards.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Strategic Data Business Analyst with 7+ years of experience empowering business teams with data-driven insights, process automation, and system enhancements. I turn raw data into business gold by translating requirements into structured data use cases and scalable analytics workflows.
In my recent role at Leidos, I collaborated with finance and operations stakeholders to write BRDs and user stories, build advanced SQL queries for data validation and anomaly detection, and automate data pipelines using SQL and Python. I also create standardized Power BI dashboards and automated reporting templates—reducing manual reporting effort by 60%—while leading Agile ceremonies and managing Jira boards for multiple concurrent projects.
Previously at Amazon, I mapped workflows, removed bottlenecks, and redesigned processes to improve operational efficiency and data accuracy by 25%. I developed interactive and audit-ready Power BI dashboards, integrated customer feedback to reduce churn by 12%, and partnered with finance and procurement to drive $150K+ in annualized logistics savings—using analytics, root cause analysis, and disciplined testing to deliver reliable outcomes.
