What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my analytical skills and offers opportunities for professional growth in financial systems and reporting.

With over ten years of experience in analysis, architecture, and implementation of various applications, I have honed my skills in Hyperion Essbase, Hyperion Planning, and Oracle EPM Cloud Products. My expertise in business process engineering and the software development lifecycle has enabled me to lead cross-functional teams in delivering integrated financial planning and reporting solutions. I am passionate about optimizing data flow and enhancing system functionality to support informed decision-making.

As a subject matter expert at Washington Headquarters Services, I spearheaded the implementation of Hyperion Planning and OBIEE applications, significantly improving budgeting workflows and reducing report generation time. My commitment to excellence is evident in my ability to streamline processes, conduct comprehensive system analyses, and deliver impactful training sessions that boost efficiency. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in data management and systems integration to drive organizational success.
