• Drive project outcomes by keeping alignment between business objectives, implementation, and success metrics.
AI-Enabled BA Practice & Client Relationships
• Use Generative AI tools (e.g., Claude, Glean, agents) to accelerate analysis, documentation, and solution design—letting the tech do the heavy lifting while you validate outputs, synthesize themes, and recommend future states.

• Hands-on experience leveraging AI to accelerate day-to-day BA activities in client delivery.
• Understanding of adoption and change management approaches and familiarity with industry-standard strategy frameworks.
