About
With a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Illinois Chicago and a Bachelor's in Computer Engineering from the University of Mumbai, I have honed my skills in data management and software development. Currently, I am an Application Support Analyst at YMCA of the USA, where I have successfully reduced solution delivery times and IT issue tickets by 50% through data-driven enhancements. I have also led data preparation and quality assurance, developed an operations dashboard in Salesforce, and facilitated the migration of forms to a standalone platform. Previously, I served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Illinois Chicago, guiding over 270 students in programming and debugging. My experience as a Python Developer at Orient Technologies involved developing a hybrid application and a highly accurate web scraper. I am adept at collaborating with cross-functional teams and delivering efficient technical solutions.
