My focus at EY was helping Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability (EHS&S) professionals succeed in adopting information systems to help them improve their company's KPIs. I helped clients document and refine their internal processes as well as facilitate conversations between multiple stakeholders, including operations, EHS&S and IT professionals. I leverage my experience working on web development platforms and databases to streamline and ensure efficient and accurate data collection and analysis.
