What I'm looking for

I seek a role that challenges me and allows for growth, focusing on data-driven decision-making and innovative solutions.

I am a highly analytical and motivated IT professional with extensive experience in Business Analysis, Requirement Gathering, and Stakeholder Management. My journey in the tech industry has equipped me with a robust understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodologies, including SCRUM, Agile, and Waterfall. I have successfully contributed to various projects in sectors such as Medicare, Medicaid, Insurance, and Retail, where I have honed my skills in developing and documenting Business and Functional Requirements.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong proficiency in data visualization and reporting tools, particularly Tableau. I have led initiatives to upgrade legacy reports to interactive dashboards, enabling data-driven decision-making. My ability to analyze complex data sets and create insightful visualizations has been pivotal in enhancing business performance. I am passionate about mentoring teams and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring that we not only meet but exceed our business objectives.
