What I'm looking for
I am an analytical professional with over seven years of experience in the insurance and financial sectors, specializing in data reporting and KPI dashboard creation. My work has consistently enhanced operational efficiency and improved financial outcomes. At The Hartford Fire Insurance Company, I successfully created and delivered data reports that improved operational visibility and reduced claim cycle times by 20%, generating over $120K in annual savings.
My expertise extends to risk identification and mitigation, process redesign, and strategic communication. I have developed performance dashboards using Power BI that inform executive decisions and drive financial improvements. My previous role as a Disability Analyst at Guardian Life Insurance Company involved managing high-volume claims and conducting thorough analyses to guide process improvements, resulting in a 40% reduction in service escalations.
