As a Vice President at Goldman Sachs with over 16 years of experience in data analytics and business intelligence, I leverage my chartered accountancy, MBA, and data science expertise to drive data-driven solutions that enhance profitability and strengthen risk management across diverse front office operations. I lead the development and execution of data strategies, implement process optimizations, and establish key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor and drive business performance. Utilizing advanced analytics and visualization tools, including Alteryx and Tableau, I translate complex data into actionable insights and recommendations for senior leadership and cross-functional teams. I also lead and mentor a high-performing business intelligence team, fostering a collaborative and innovative environment. My prior experience in IT consulting and multinational product development has provided a robust foundation in business analysis, functional specification, and global client-facing product implementations. I am passionate about leveraging data storytelling to drive data-informed decision-making and deliver significant business value.
