About Me

I'm a data-minded finance professional currently studying for my M.S. in Business Analytics at Sacramento State, building skills in Python, R, SQL, Tableau, machine learning, and AWS big data. I earned my B.S. in Finance summa cum laude (3.95 GPA). My background spans budget planning and fiscal operations at CSUS Student Affairs, institutional investment operations at CalPERS — the nation's largest public pension fund — equity research at Sand Hill Global Advisors, and accounting operations at Associated Students, Inc.
