Outcomes, not just dashboards.

Analytics that starts with a product or market question and ends with a recommendation teams can ship, measure, and scale.

GA4 Audience & Acquisition

Audited 50K+ GA4 users, isolated 10% bot traffic, and found organic search generated 3× higher engagement than social, reshaping acquisition priorities.

From evidence to market decision.

The same analytical system can support a product fix, a positioning choice, or a launch test.

Computer science, business, and analytics working as one system.

My B.Tech. in Computer Science and Business Systems taught me to think in systems, data, and constraints. My M.S. in Marketing Analysis at DePaul adds the customer, market, and commercial layer. I use that fusion to isolate the signal, test what matters, and deliver a business recommendation people can use.
