About

As the Manager of the Data Analytics team for a global investment management firm, I determine the direction and strategy of our business intelligence capabilities and the tools used to accomplish those goals. In doing so, I have helped to build a culture that uses data to drive decision making. I am focused on developing a scalable data strategy, advancing data literacy, delivering an enterprise analytics platform, and growing a community interested in data science and analytics. Skilled in Tableau, Alteryx, and Python, I have a strong professional track record supported by my Masters in Predictive Analytics at Northwestern University as well as my Bachelor of Arts in Economics and Studio Art from Beloit College. I am currently serving as a Tableau Ambassador.
