About Me
I'm an IT Business Analyst with an PM background and 2.5+ years of experience solving complex global operational pain points through AI and digital transformation solutions.
Across AI Platforms, ERP, Fintech, and EdTech, I bridge the gap between client vision and technical execution. At DataX Power and Mynavi Techtus, I elicited rigorous requirements for AI Computer Vision Platforms and SaaS products, mapped robust UI/UX frameworks, and coordinated global teams (Australia, Canada, Japan) to deliver high-quality, large-scale systems. At FPT Software, I developed RPA automation logic separating Excel, Web, and System rules.
I specialize in bridging architectural constraints with ML engineering logic, translating complex AI capabilities into structured business documents (BRDs, SRS) and visual models. I also leverage AI tools (v0, Claude) for rapid prototyping while strictly governing Data Privacy, ensuring alignment with stakeholders at every single sprint.
