My path to business analysis was anything but linear. I have 16+ years experience in child welfare and community social services organizations. I have found something to love in every job I have ever had, but my greatest thrills have always come from solving problems. Eventually, I realized I could make a career out of problem solving.My dream career in college was to be a Philosophy professor; logic and epistemology to be precise. I love to apply the critical thinking and analytical skills I developed in these disciplines in my career as a Business Analyst. It feels like a logical progression, if not a bit unconventional. No matter where my career takes me, I will always want to be the first in line when a problem is suspected.
