As a Senior Research Analyst at Unilever, I have been part of a cross-functional R&D team, providing insights for over five international and local brands.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to conduct thorough analyses and report insights that translate into strategic recommendations. I have established KPIs and benchmarks to optimize performance and have created PowerBI overviews for effective communication with marketing and R&D teams.
