Analytical Solution Information

Being a single mother of two sons was a challenge but no one has ever accused me of backing down from a challenge, eager to learn and grow, I entered the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the spring of 1993. I worked in the Developmental Math Lab my entire tenure with UTC, assisting students with all levels of mathematics. Upon graduating from UTC with a double major, Applied Mathematics and Economics in 1998, I moved to the Chicago area to start my career in analytics. During the past 18 years, I have worked with Fortune 100 and 500 companies including but not limited to, Discover Financial Services, J&J, Hershey, Kraft, Kellogg’s, SCJ, McNeil and Firestone. Acting as a liaison between the IT department and the Executive staff, I am able to take huge complicated databases, decipher business needs and come back with intelligence that quantifies spending, profit and trends. Being called a data nerd is a badge of courage for this curious Mathematician/Economist because knowledge is power and companies are now acknowledging its importance. I am professionally trained in Analytics and Econometrics (Mathematical modeling of economical data) with 18+ years experience with Fortune 100 and 500 companies. I lived and worked in Chicago for 10 years, during this time I managed some of the best known data warehouse and analytic campaigns including the research for procuring CTU and the trademark Le Cordon Bleu while working with Career Education Corporation, the Edible straw for Kellogg’s'​, the Automatic Shower Cleaner for SCJ and Market Share research for one of the largest carpet manufactures in the world, Tandus - As a Freelance Data Scientist I have worked with Disney, PBA, Deloitte, Talent Analytics and More!
