About Me

I love Excel and everything that comes with it: quantitative analysis, identifying trends in large data sets, making files easier to work with – you name it. I love the challenge and figuring it out.
After majoring in Accounting and Finance, I spent several years in finance, including both investment banking and private equity investing, focusing on the consumer & retail space. I just recently graduated with my MBA from Stanford and am looking for freelance work while working on a skincare startup.
I’m thorough, diligent, flexible and enthusiastic, and will work hard to make sure you get exactly what you’re looking for.
