Professional summary

I am a Lead Business Consultant with over 7 years of experience driving operational efficiency and cost reduction in the Banking and Medical sectors. I specialize in bridging the gap between strategic business goals and technical execution using Power Platform, Python, and SQL. Throughout my career, I have delivered significant annual savings and automated critical workflows that enhance business performance.

Currently, I lead the operations department at Nordea, where I focus on improving key banking metrics through statistical analysis, stakeholder communication, and proactive project management. My efforts have reduced weekly FTE operational costs by 30%, and I have successfully led strategic workstreams that exceed ROI targets for the Automation, Data & Change unit.

Previously, I worked as a Senior Strategic Consultant on contract at Stryker, where I led strategic initiatives that improved departmental efficiency and reduced operational costs by 15%. I automated audit-compliant reports and implemented frameworks that replaced legacy systems, enabling better financial budget alignment and data visualization.

My experience also includes senior business analyst roles where I developed automated BI dashboards and unified automation projects that increased productivity and reduced resource utilization across Nordic teams. I have a strong background in business intelligence, having developed models that led to significant cost reductions and improved project completion times.

I hold a MSc in E-Governance & Technologies from TalTech University and a BEng (Hons) in Civil Engineering from Heriot-Watt University. I am continuously enhancing my skills through certifications and training in Power BI, DevOps, and data analytics. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive business transformation and deliver measurable value.
