What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply AI-enabled financial analysis, modeling, and dashboarding to support strategic decisions in technology, finance, or aerospace.

At Qualcomm, I analyzed P&L variance and quarterly EPS walks for the handset business unit, surfacing over $500K in favorability for senior leadership.

I automated a peer competitor earnings deck with agents and workflows in VS Code and n8n, reducing production time from days to under two minutes. The workflow was adopted by senior leadership for the next earnings cycle.

At Firefly Aerospace, I presented budget-to-actual reviews for Alpha and Blue Ghost launch programs and built Power BI dashboards for live spend visibility across four spacecraft and lunar lander programs.

I also bring investing, financial planning, and campus leadership experience, including managing a full P&L for Digital Futures Club workshops and securing more than $8K in corporate sponsorships.
