About Me

I'm an NYC-based remote engineering associate working in data analytics. I enjoy collaborative problem solving but am comfortable working solo and leading teams / projects that align with my skillsets and interests. Creativity, determination, and resourcefulness are three of my key strengths as a teammate.

Ideal Workplace Values

To me, the ideal workplace values safety, equality, democracy, inclusion and transparency. I support efforts to advance anti-racism, civil rights, justice, and dignity for all people.Ideally, I would love for all my work to empower and give a voice to the voiceless, innovating new ways to champion empathy, whether for humans, our shared natural environment, or any sentient being currently experiencing neglect, threats, exclusion, or exploitation.

Skills & Strengths

Neuroexceptional Talents

I am able to quickly simplify complex problems and topics into easily digestible, organized instructional materials (including assessments, policies, and press) for business and academic audiences. I have ultra sensitive hearing capabilities, perfect relative pitch, and some professional experiences editing raw audio recordings of classical string music concerts and voiceover narration for CD and film production. During the pandemic, I moved my consulting business online and concurrently upskilled myself in tech, specifically IT support and full stack web development, earning several new certifications across multiple vendors (CompTIA, Odin Project, 100 Devs, Google, Coursera, IBM) and ultimately dedicating over 500 hours of focused study and targeted industry research in just under two years. Currently I work as an Engineering Associate in Data Visualization for a large financial services company in the NYC area, where I have contributed to projects using skills in Power BI, Tableau, SharePoint, Workday, Service Now, Python, SQL, and more.
