My professional journey began in the financial sector, where I served as a Corporate & Investment Banker at UBA Group and Sterling Bank. In this role, I honed my financial acumen by conducting detailed customer activity and credit analyses to inform business decisions. I also utilized data to forecast and predict revenues, and my work with value chain banking helped increase ROI by 25%. This experience laid the foundation for my data-driven approach to problem-solving.
Transitioning into the technology sector, I worked as a Data Analyst at Apple Inc., where my focus was on improving data integrity and efficiency. I created SQL and T-SQL queries to analyze and validate data, boosting productivity and improving database performance by 70%. I also conducted both automated and manual QA testing, which resulted in a 47% reduction in data redundancy.
Following my time at Apple, I joined Integra Life Sciences as a Senior Pricing and Process Analyst. In this role, I analyzed complex pricing structures and operational workflows for managed care contracts, ensuring profitability and compliance. I was responsible for leading the analysis and calculation of customer rebate programs, a key performance indicator that contributed to a 20% increase in sales over five consecutive quarters. I also demonstrated my ability to integrate data from multiple sources like Salesforce, Model N, and Excel to provide valuable business insights to management.
Most recently, as a Lead Strategy and Operations Analyst at Stericycle Inc., I have taken on a leadership role in driving operational efficiency and process improvement. I have led initiatives to re-design and standardize operational processes, improving rebate and discount accrual and aligning with core business goals. A key accomplishment was managing pricing automation using Alteryx, a project that enhanced efficiency and reduced turnaround time for price requests by 70%. This role has also involved significant cross-functional collaboration with Marketing, Sales, and Data Governance teams, where I supported UAT testing and data migration to ensure data integrity.
My extensive experience and diverse skill set make me a versatile and impactful professional, capable of leading initiatives that improve efficiency, drive profitability, and support key business objectives.
