What I'm looking for

I’m seeking ESG Analyst, Sustainability Analyst, or Corporate Governance Researcher roles where data-driven insights improve responsible investment decisions, including ESG scoring support, corporate governance research, and audit-ready sustainability reporting.

I’m an ESG Analyst with 1.5+ years of experience in sustainability reporting, corporate governance analysis, and proxy statement (DEF 14A) review. I analyze ESG and financial disclosures to support responsible investment decisions, bringing 98%+ data accuracy to audit-ready outputs.

In my current ESG DATA ANALYST II role, I conduct qualitative and quantitative ESG materiality assessments using GRI Standards, SASB, and TCFD disclosure frameworks. I extract, review, and synthesize data from 900+ corporate reports, including CSR/sustainability reports, 10-K filings, DEF 14A proxy statements, and annual reports.

I focus on board composition, executive compensation, Say-on-Pay voting outcomes, and ESG risk management disclosures against investor stewardship and regulatory compliance benchmarks. I’ve worked across disclosures from companies domiciled in the US, Canada, Japan, China, Mexico, and India, enabling cross-border sustainability benchmarking.
