Your Business. My Expertise. Limitless Potential.

Providing Expert Analysis for Business Optimization and Growth.

Senior Business Analyst with 20+ Years of Experience

I am a Senior cross-industry Business Analyst with extensive IT and software development background. That helps me to carry out simple on site prototyping when required, which helps demonstrate the advantages of technological solutions to current and potential clients, getting them on board as quickly as possible.

Likewise, my knowledge of custom software outsourcing and developing cycles allows me to manage and supervise IT projects effectively and provide technical specifications with all
statutory documentation for software development projects.

My cross-industry experience is a valuable asset since a problem specific to one industry may already have a solution in another. Moreover, business process optimization methodologies can also work across various industries, allowing for cross-industry solutions when internal methods don’t make the cut.
