About Me
Hiđź‘‹! My name is Nyasha, I am a current Integrated Neuroscience and Master of Finance (Risk Management Analytics) student at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH. I focus on data analytics, predictive modeling, and strategic program execution to drive risk mitigation and operational efficiency. As VP of Finance for UDC at CWRU, I managed a $300,000+ budget, overseeing financial planning, resource allocation, and compliance for 60+ student organizations. My leadership extends to my work at Jumpstart Inc., where I developed risk models, automated financial workflows, and provided data-driven insights to improve decision-making.
Additionally, at the Veale Institute for Entrepreneurship, I managed grant funding programs, ensuring efficient program execution through data-driven strategies. Beyond analytics, I co-founded MedVic LLC, a platform designed to connect nursing assistants with healthcare facilities and volunteers with volunteering opportunities.I am passionate about leveraging data, leading teams, and driving program management solutions—particularly in healthcare, finance, and social impact sectors. When I’m not leading initiatives or analyzing data, I enjoy playing basketball, conducting neuroscience research, and volunteering at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Let’s connect and explore how data, leadership, and program management can create meaningful change!
