Since graduating from Yale University with an MBA, I became a business analyst in New York City. In February 2015, had the amazing opportunity interning and working for JPMorgan Chase & Co where I specialized in cost saving solutions and risk management. In January 2016, I was a finalist for the Business Analyst of the Year award. The award is sponsored by AssistKD and IIBA UK and recognizes excellence in business analysis.
As a business analyst, my job is to identify, assess, and document business requirements. I also recommend business priorities and advise the business on options, risks, and costs. I also analyze the impact of proposed solution across the business, develop use cases, functional specification. I am currently seeking other business opportunities in New York City.
