Isabella Kroczaleski
I am a Business Analyst Graduate Student based in Metro Detroit, Michigan.
​
Currently I am looking to pivot into business/data analysis after some years in finance and education operations. I am working on professional certifications, independent projects, and Master of Science degree to support my future transition into a new industry.
​
When I am not studying, reading, or working, I enjoy spending time with my friends and volunteering as a board member, producer, or performer at metro Detroit's local community theatres. I love to travel to experience art, food, and culture.
