DATA ANALYSIS & REPORT DESIGN
With a strong foundation in business intelligence, I excel at harnessing data to drive informed decision-making.

When I’m not busy crafting reports, you might find me experimenting with sourdough recipes or sketching new design ideas. These passions influence my approach to creating visually engaging reports that not only solve problems but also leave a memorable impression.
Let’s transform your data into something that not only looks good but feels good too. Together, we’ll make your audience not just see the numbers but truly connect with your story.
