  • Demonstrated ability to synthesize diverse, high-volume datasets into clear, executive-ready visualizations and strategic GTM narratives.
  • Demonstrated experience utilizing generative AI platforms (e.g., Claude, NotebookLM, Gemini) to accelerate data synthesis, streamline deck preparation, or build automated enablement workflows.
