Summary

A vibrant and self-motivated Business system analyst with 15+ customer service experience in client facing, technical support and analysis roles within Fintech, Health-Technology, Marketing & Retail industries. The customer service experience obtained has taught me that IT does not govern business solutions, but rather is an important integral in business solutions. Thus as an analyst I always adopt a meticulous approach from the requirements stage of SDLC in order to produce solutions not enforced by IT but are efficient to business & client support processes.
