Who I Am

Turning Data into Decisions

I'm a Senior Analytics Consultant with nearly a decade of experience that began in structured project management and evolved into leading advanced analytics engagements for global enterprise clients.

At Quantzig, I independently own client relationships end-to-end — from scoping and predictive model design to C-suite presentations and Quarterly Business Reviews. I've mentored a team of 4 analysts and led 3 major client engagements as the single point of contact.

My edge lies in combining deep technical expertise in machine learning and data science with the strategic thinking and stakeholder fluency of a seasoned consultant. I don't just build models — I make them matter to the business.

Academically backed by a Post Graduate Program in Data Science & Business Analytics from UT Austin (McCombs) and Great Lakes Institute of Management.
