What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills in finance and business analysis, while contributing to a collaborative team environment focused on growth and innovation.

I am a results-driven and adaptable Finance and Statistics graduate with a solid background in financial accounting, data analysis, and digital marketing. With over four years of experience spanning hotel accounting, SME consulting, and freelance digital marketing, I have developed a well-rounded skill set that blends analytical thinking with creative problem-solving.

My practical knowledge of tools like Microsoft Excel and SQL has allowed me to support decision-making through accurate reporting and insights. I am now seeking to transition into a finance or business analysis role where I can apply my academic training and diverse experience to support business growth and performance.
