Experience behind the analysis.

Healthcare context, alongside technical training.

Arlington Eye Physicians

One year working with cataract surgery data.

My professional background includes working with cataract surgery data in an ophthalmology practice. That experience connects my analytical training to the clinical setting behind the records.

Professional experience · Separate from the portfolio projects above

Endeavor Health

Hands-on ophthalmic care.

As an ophthalmic technician, I work with patient documentation in Epic and support diagnostic testing and clinical workflows. I bring familiarity with how healthcare information is collected and used.

03 / A little context

Healthcare roots.
Analytical mindset.

My background started with people: a B.S. in Health Sciences from DePaul University and hands-on work in ophthalmology. That experience taught me to pay attention to details, ask thoughtful questions, and understand the real situations behind a record.

I hold an M.S. in Data Analytics from Western Governors University and bring one year of experience working with cataract surgery data at Arlington Eye Physicians. My graduate projects span data preparation, statistical modeling, dashboards, and model deployment.

I’m interested in opportunities where I can combine that healthcare perspective with clear analysis and practical problem-solving.
