@sallyibrahim
Event Manager and data-analytics specialist building real-time dashboards for MEA pharmaceutical education.
What I'm looking for
I’m an MEA Event Manager with strong expertise in data analysis and dashboard development, supporting professional education for local and multinational pharmaceutical and medical device teams. I oversee end-to-end event execution—logistics, vendor coordination, approvals, and budget management—while using internal systems like Cvent and HCC to keep delivery compliant and well-documented.
In my current role, I built an end-to-end Smartsheet data solution to capture event and attendee details and attached key documents (agendas, announcements, logistics) to each event. I also integrated Smartsheet event data with procurement system reports to create a comprehensive view of professional education spend, then developed interactive Power BI dashboards for real-time tracking of events, HCP training, and financial performance—achieving 100% alignment of spend with budget in 2025 for the first time and reducing manual reporting through automated collection, reconciliation, and dashboard workflows. I’m currently pursuing a Data Analysis Diploma to further strengthen my analytical and technical capabilities.
