Being a single mother of two sons was a challenge but no one has ever accused Carla of backing down from a challenge, eager to learn and grow, she entered the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the spring of 1993. Upon graduating from UTC with a double major, Applied Mathematics and Economics in 1998, she moved to the Chicago area to start her career in analytics. During the past 12 years, she has worked with Fortune 100 and 500 companies including but not limited to, Discover Financial Services, Kraft, Kellogg’s, SCJ and Firestone. Acting as a liaison between the IT department and the Executive staff, she is able to take huge complicate databases, decipher business needs and come back with intelligence that quantifies spending, profit and trends. Being called a data nerd is a patch of courage for this curious Mathematician/Economist because knowledge is power and companies are now acknowledging its importance.
Carla returned home to Chattanooga in 2008 bringing with her extensive knowledge of marketing, trends and database analysis. When not trying to solve the world’s problems, Carla enjoys playing with her new grandson, tutoring high school and college students in mathematics and beating her big sister at anything!
