Previously, at BNY, my focus was on enhancing business processes through advanced data analytics and model development. A key part of my role was to engage with strategic changes that elevate data flow and integrity, empowering the Reconciliation Centre of Excellence in its pivotal data mining endeavours.

Earlier in my career as a Product Readiness Analyst at TalkTalk Wholesale Services and a Tactical Category Specialist at Sonoco, I contributed to critical reporting and the implementation of procurement platforms, which honed my proficiency in Qlik Sense and Excel.
