Professional Overview

I am a strategic, data-driven Program Operations Lead currently expanding my technical toolkit through a Data Analytics fellowship with Merit America. With a background spanning Higher Education, Web3, and Venture Creation, I specialize in translating complex methodologies into scalable operating models and data-backed programs.

I thrive in environments where I can leverage analytics, SQL, and data visualization to solve systemic challenges, optimize workflows, and bring organizational clarity.

About Me

My career has been defined by human-centered design and systems thinking—from co-leading governance for a 5,000+ member global Web3 ecosystem to directing product growth and operations. I believe the most effective data analysis doesn't just produce reports; it builds the infrastructure for better human and organizational alignment.
