OBJECTIVE
Since achieving my Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology and working in both the psychological field and the financial field, I have went to school to obtain a MBA and a Master’s of Science in Marketing. Over the past three years I have worked in the field and have been an independent consultant in the field of market research. I have worked in many industries, including but not limited to online education, non-profits, breweries, and dentistry. I have conducted research to provide data backed decisions on questions that revolve around consumer insights, consumer behavior, product development, social media strategy, and business development. I have used data analysis, survey analysis, focus groups, in-depth interviews, among other tools to come to the conclusion to many of these questions. In a nut shell I use research to come up with strategic recommendations for my clients and/or employer.
In my next role, I am looking to use these tools to help my next employer reach these strategic goals, whether they be in consumer insights/behavior, product development/placement, business development, or social media strategy.
