What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in a dynamic organization that values analytical expertise and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a detail-oriented and results-driven Financial Analyst with over 5 years of experience in financial modeling, credit risk analysis, and performance reporting across the healthcare and banking sectors. My proven ability to deliver data-driven insights and streamline financial operations has supported strategic decision-making in various organizations. I hold an MBA in Finance and Marketing, complemented by a strong foundation in legal and regulatory compliance from my BS in Legal Studies.

Throughout my career, I have developed and maintained financial models to forecast revenue and expenses, conducted variance analysis, and prepared comprehensive financial reports that improve visibility into budget performance. My technical skills include advanced proficiency in SQL, Power BI, and Excel (VBA), which I have utilized to automate processes and enhance reporting accuracy. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to drive financial growth and operational efficiency.
