Finance & Business Analytics

As an Analyst in the Business & Finance field, I value precision, analytical thinking, and collaboration. Whether building financial and M&A models or delivering executive level reports, I approach every project with curiosity and a problem-solving mindset. Throughout my career, I’ve managed budgets, developed forecasts, implemented process improvements, and maintained dashboards that help drive informed decision making.

Areas of Expertise:
• Data Analysis & Visualization (Excel, Power BI)
• Financial Modeling & Valuation (Forecasting, Reforecasting, P&L, Deal Profitability)
• Data Management & Quality Assurance (Ingestion, Mapping, Standardization)
• Dashboard Development & Maintenance
• Cross-Functional Collaboration & Communication
• Process Optimization & Workflow Standardization
• Project Management & Documentation (SharePoint, Reporting Guides)
• Cross-Functional Operations

I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy turning data into actionable insights. Whether supporting leadership teams or analyzing complex datasets, I value the balance between communication and problem solving. I’m proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, SQL, Tableau, R, and Java, and hold a bachelor’s degree in Actuarial Science with a minor in Applied Computer Science.


Outside of work, some of my passions include baking, reading, and spending time outdoors. I go through books like nobody’s business and always appreciate a good recommendation. I’m also an avid beachgoer and volunteer regularly for beach clean-ups around San Diego.

Whether you’re reaching out to network, share a book recommendation, or simply say hello, I’d love to connect.
