About
Business Analyst & Development | Process Optimization & Data-Driven Decisions | Experience Across Sales, Ops & Strategy
I am a Business Analyst with 5+ years of experience operating in high-growth startup environments, where structure, ownership, and adaptability are essential. Working in small teams has allowed me to develop a cross-functional perspective across operations, sales, and strategy. In fast-changing contexts, I learned how to turn ambiguity into structured processes, translate business needs into actionable solutions, and support data-driven decision-making. My strength lies in building clarity where processes are evolving: improving workflows, identifying inefficiencies, and aligning stakeholders around measurable outcomes. Having worked in dynamic environments with limited resources, I am comfortable taking initiative, working independently, and driving impact without waiting for perfect conditions. I am currently seeking a Business Analyst role where I can contribute to process optimization, operational excellence, and structured growth.
