What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow within a mission-driven analytics team where I can own dashboard/report delivery, strengthen data quality, and translate insights into clear, client-ready decisions—while continuing to expand my analytics and data science skills.

I’m a detail-oriented Data Analyst with an M.S. in Data Science and 2+ years of end-to-end analytical experience. I deliver client-ready reporting, strengthen data quality through routine validations, and turn findings into clear, business-aligned recommendations.

In my roles at JerseySTEM and NJIT, I’ve built and maintained 20+ interactive dashboards, automated monthly reporting cycles, and improved program outcomes through accurate KPI tracking. I’ve also run A/B tests to evaluate campaign effectiveness, synthesized 6,000+ unstructured responses with NLP for decision support, and deployed predictive models to identify at-risk customers—always partnering cross-functionally to meet deadlines and drive measurable impact.
