Information Management Professional | AI, Data Science & Analytics | Content Creator
I’m a marketing and research professional with over 20 years of experience helping organizations unlock the power of customer and user insights to drive exceptional experiences and successful business strategies. My current focus is on leveraging AI and data analytics to automate and transform information management, develop applications, and develop digital content.
I currently serve as the Public Information Specialist at the National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center in Seattle, where I develop digital content, manage communication platforms, and facilitate an AD/ADRD research funding program. I recently completed my Master of Science in Information Management at the University of Washington, specializing in Data Science & Analytics, Business Intelligence & People Analytics, and Data Management.
I’m passionate about collaborative problem-solving and believe the best work happens when we incorporate diverse experiences in developing AI, apps, digital content, and automation tools. By combining different perspectives, technical approaches, and creative insights, we can create more intelligent, inclusive, and effective solutions for complex challenges.
