What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an analytics role where I can turn complex data into clear business recommendations, build practical dashboards or tools, and grow through cross-functional work on real market, healthcare, or product problems.

I'm completing an MS in Business Analytics at USC Marshall while building data-driven solutions across real estate, healthcare, marketing, and AI products.

At IDX Exchange, I cleaned and analyzed real estate data with SQL and Python, built Tableau dashboards, and translated pricing and inventory trends into client-facing market insights.

At IQVIA, I designed 300+ physician surveys and built a Python automation tool that improved data quality and reduced manual workload by about 40%. I partnered with stakeholders to turn business questions into data queries and drug-strategy recommendations.

I've also supported L’Oréal e-commerce strategy at Otype, analyzed biotech talent trends for Biogen, and am building JobLens, an AI-powered Chrome extension using the Gemini API to improve job-matching quality.
