Summary

I am currently working as a Business Analyst in WooliesX, where my natural curiosity and analytical mindset allow me to tackle complex problems.

My core competencies as a BA include requirements elicitation and analysis, data analysis, process mapping, agile methodologies and documenting requirements.

My previous experience as a Performance Test Engineer has equipped me with a solid foundation in technology, which proves valuable when working on projects involving technological changes.

As a highly collaborative and empathetic individual, I thrive in diverse work environments and am passionate about learning from and working alongside talented individuals.

Before joining WooliesX in August 2017, I honed my skills at companies such as Sears, IAG, NBN, Telstra, and Westpac.
