As Lead Business Analyst and Technical BA on this project, I led the successful implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations across all departments. The project replaced legacy systems like Sage and SAP and supported a fivefold expansion in operational scale—reducing project costs by £300k through Lean Six Sigma methods, Agile delivery, and process re-engineering.
I built my personal website as both a learning project and a professional branding tool. This project helped me explore modern frontend technologies like Framer Motion while giving me a platform to present my career, technical projects, and achievements in a sleek, animated interface.
Business Analyst, Lead Developer, and Solution Architect, I led the design and delivery of a Device Lifecycle Management System. The solution enabled real-time tracking of over 750,000 devices, automating repairs, shipments, and disposals. The system significantly improved data accuracy, operational efficiency, and executive reporting through integrated PowerApps, Power Automate, and Power BI.
