What I'm looking for

I seek a data-focused operations role where I can apply academic planning, reporting and BI skills, continue upskilling in SQL/Power BI, and drive process improvements.

I am an operations and reporting professional with 9+ years supporting academic planning, enrolment forecasting, and timetable development across higher education programs.

I work extensively with large Excel datasets to identify trends, risks, capacity constraints and translate operational data into clear insights for academic and administrative stakeholders.

I have built Power BI dashboards, developed an internal AWS Lex chatbot, and led process improvements to reduce manual effort and improve data quality while investigating and resolving cross-system discrepancies.

I am currently developing SQL and further Power BI skills to support more scalable, data-driven reporting and to better enable planning decisions for academic divisions and management teams.
