The Pop in Your Job:
I love people analytics because it sits at the intersection of data and human behavior. Transforming raw HR metrics into actionable insights improves employee experiences, fairness, and organizational growth. Whether identifying bias in hiring trends, predicting attrition risks, or optimizing workforce planning, precise analytics lends credibility to business decisions. I thrive on solving puzzles that directly impact people’s lives. My background in finance (PhD) taught me the value of rigorous analysis, but HR analytics adds purpose. This isn’t just about numbers, it’s about fostering workplaces where talent thrives. Every project feels like an opportunity to bridge data and humanity.
