As a passionate Management Consultant and US Army Veteran with over six years of experience in consulting, data analysis, and program management, I thrive on solving complex business challenges through data-driven insights and strategic leadership. My career has taken me through diverse industries—from managing consulting projects and delivering key recommendations to executives, to enhancing performance metrics through data analytics at a national level. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to create solutions that generate real impact and contribute to organizational success.In my recent role as a Consultant Manager at the US Small Business Administration, I led multiple initiatives focused on improving organizational performance through data analysis and design thinking workshops. My ability to dive deep into data, identify trends, and deliver actionable insights helped drive meaningful improvements across the board. I'm particularly proud of being selected for the fraud detection team—a testament to my detail-oriented approach and problem-solving capabilities.Prior to that, I honed my skills in business strategy as a Senior Consultant with Illinois Business Consulting and as a Senior Business Consultant with the United States Army. These roles helped me develop strong leadership abilities, as I managed cross-functional teams, improved operational efficiency, and worked on highly confidential, mission-critical projects. My military experience instilled in me the discipline, adaptability, and commitment to excellence that I carry into every aspect of my professional life.I hold an MBA with a focus on International Business from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a Master’s in Digital Marketing from Northern Illinois University. My academic background, coupled with hands-on experience in data analytics tools such as Power BI, Python, Tableau, and proprietary DOD systems, has equipped me to tackle business problems from a holistic perspective.I would love to connect with like-minded professionals who are passionate about data-driven decision-making, strategy, and continuous improvement.
