About

Professional summary

I am a Senior IT Business Analyst with over five years of experience delivering business analysis, data analysis, process improvement, and reporting solutions across transportation, retail, insurance, and utilities-related environments.

I translate complex stakeholder needs into clear business and functional requirements, including BRDs, FRDs, user stories, acceptance criteria, process flows, business rules, and traceability matrices. I work closely with business users, SMEs, developers, architects, QA teams, and leadership throughout the SDLC.

I use SQL, relational databases, Python, Power BI, Tableau, and Excel to analyze data, validate records, reconcile discrepancies, and build actionable reporting solutions. My experience includes data profiling, source-to-target mapping, system integrations, data migration, and field-level validation.

I have developed KPI dashboards and executive reports that reduced manual reporting effort and improved decision-making. I am experienced in analyzing large datasets, identifying workflow bottlenecks, and recommending automation and process optimization opportunities.

I support Agile and Waterfall delivery models and have led SIT, UAT, defect triage, release validation, and production support activities. I am focused on delivering scalable, data-driven business solutions that improve operational efficiency and reporting accuracy.
