About Me
I am an aspiring Data Analyst and Cybersecurity professional transitioning from a successful career in emergency medicine into the world of technology and data-driven decision-making. With over eight years of experience working in high-pressure environments as a Paramedic and EMT, I developed strong skills in critical thinking, problem-solving, risk assessment, communication, and making accurate decisions when stakes are high.
While I am new to the technology field, I have been relentlessly focused on building my skills through self-directed learning, academic excellence, and hands-on projects. I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the University of Maryland Global Campus, maintaining a 4.0 GPA and earning Dean's List recognition.
Beyond formal education, I have completed the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate and multiple industry-focused simulation programs, including BCG's Data Analytics and Consulting simulations, where I worked through real-world business challenges and project scenarios. These experiences have strengthened my analytical mindset and reinforced my passion for using data to solve problems, improve processes, and support better decision-making.
My goal is to combine my operational experience, analytical thinking, and growing technical skillset to help organizations turn complex information into clear, actionable insights.
