Currently managing a high-volume retail operation generating over $60K in weekly revenue, I developed forecasting and labor optimization models that increased profitability by 7–10% and contributed to a $12K weekly sales increase. My work focuses on translating operational data into actionable strategies that improve efficiency and business outcomes. My background spans product management, software development, and analytics across international environments (USA, UAE, Russia), giving me a strong understanding of both technical systems and business operations. I am particularly interested in roles in business analytics, operations analytics, or data analysis where I can support decision-making, optimize processes, and contribute to scalable growth.
