What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a mission-driven team where I can combine financial analysis and data to build KPIs, automate reporting, and turn insights into practical decisions—especially in roles that value clean systems, measurable outcomes, and collaboration.

I’m an operations, finance, and data professional with 5+ years of experience supporting nonproft and mission-driven organizations through financial analysis, workforce planning, and systems improvement. As a Business Support Specialist, I partner with program leaders to build KPIs, strengthen financial sustainability, and improve payroll and billing processes—translating complex data into clear recommendations for state agencies and nonprofit leaders.

I also founded LMK AI Consulting LLC, where I build automation, reporting, and decision-support tools. I’ve delivered measurable wins like reducing overhead by 15%, cutting audit preparation time by 25%, and automating reporting pipelines to reduce preparation time by 90%—while developing predictive analytics models that improved resource allocation by 20%.
