About
Every organization has data. The difference lies in how you use it and the story it tells. I help companies turn analytics into advantage, leading teams that translate numbers into narratives that drive change.Over the past six years, I’ve built and led a high-performing BI team that transforms raw data into clear, actionable insights that drive growth and operational excellence.My passion is helping organizations move beyond dashboards toward a true culture of data-driven decision-making. I’ve guided enterprise data strategies, championed data literacy and self-service analytics, and partnered with executives across every line of business to turn insights into measurable impact.Some of my favorite challenges include: • Leading analytics initiatives that drive real change, from improving NPS to growing membership and deposits. • Translating complex technical outcomes into business language leaders can act on immediately. • Coaching teams to look beyond the numbers and uncover the story data tells.Outside of work, I enjoy carrying on a longstanding Croatian family tradition of making small-batch wine, a hands-on reminder that experimentation, patience and precision often lead to the most rewarding results. I’m also passionate about the analytics of fantasy football; as a former fantasy football blog creator, I love identifying insights and sharing them through data-driven storytelling.Guided by my faith and a commitment to servant leadership, I strive to build teams that lead with empathy, curiosity, and purpose.
