About Me
Hi, Iβm Jessica Tolton β a business and data analytics professional with a background in healthcare operations, HR compliance, and process improvement. Iβm passionate about using data to solve real-world problems, uncover trends, and help healthcare organizations run more efficiently while keeping people at the heart of every decision.
Before moving into analytics, I spent several years managing operations and compliance in home health care. As an Operations Manager and HR Coordinator at Touching Hearts at Home, I led documentation reviews, audited billing and scheduling records, and streamlined workflows to improve data accuracy and consistency. Those experiences taught me how powerful clean, reliable data can be β and how it directly impacts patient care, employee satisfaction, and organizational success.

Iβm currently earning my Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate through Merit America, maintaining a 99 % average. Iβve built technical skills in SQL, Tableau, R, and Excel, applying them to projects that automate reporting, visualize metrics, and uncover operational efficiencies.
My approach blends data and human insight. I believe analytics tell stories that drive better decisions and outcomes. My values:
- Integrity: Doing the right thing, even when itβs hard.
- Accuracy: Every detail counts β precision matters.
- Empathy: Remembering there are real people behind every dataset.
- Loyalty: Showing up consistently and following through.
Iβm passionate about roles that combine business strategy, operational analytics, and process improvement β helping teams use data to work smarter. Ultimately, I aim to make healthcare operations more transparent, efficient, and human-centered. Outside of work, I love learning visualization techniques and mentoring new analysts.
