Hi, I'm Michelle

At FactSet, I work with a mix of enterprise and financial services clients to onboard their data sources and processes onto FactSet.

Previously, I've worked at a biotech startup and OICR, wrangling data and building workflows. I graduated from the University of Waterloo where I studed biochemistry and bioinformatics.

My science background allows me to tackle problems with an analytical mindset, and I'm confident applying technical solutions to client-facing business requirements.

My Story

I started as a bioinformatics researcher, where I used code to solve complex problems and automate workflows.

I leaned on those technical skills when I joined the financial services industry. I brought automation and data expertise, while simultaneously learning the client-facing and business skills essential to working with financial stakeholders.

Today: I design and implement technical solutions, communicate to exec-level stakeholders, and bridge the gap between client needs and product integrations.
