As a Program Cost and Schedule Control Analyst at Northrop Grumman, I support the financial planning and analysis of various defense and aerospace projects. I apply my skills in process improvement, data analysis, and risk management to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the cost and schedule performance reports. I also collaborate with the project managers and engineers to identify and resolve any issues or discrepancies that may affect the project outcomes or deliverables.I have a strong passion for finance and economics, which I developed during my undergraduate studies at Utah State University, where I earned a dual major in Finance and Economics. I have over two years of experience in the mortgage industry, where I worked as a Capital Markets-Hedge Analyst and a Secondary Analyst at Primary Residential Mortgage. There, I gained expertise in mortgage-backed security transactions, securitization, and bid allocation, as well as creating and modifying bid tapes, performance reports, and forecast models. I also led several interdepartmental projects to improve process flows and reduce internal defects, resulting in significant time and cost savings.
