Data Innovations Office facilitates cross-sector analytical insight generation to drive competitive value and optimize the use of its resources and financial assets. Under the Chief Data Officer’s leadership this office provides analytical services to many other business units. An agency relationship exists between Data Innovations Office and all other business units who use its services. At the same time, this office employs services of third party business analytics service providers. At times, the third party companies may need a database to create solutions which pose a great value. They might not be able to generate these databases on their own due to sheer volume of data and lack of very expensive data processing environments. Although these companies are hired to provide services solely for the interest of the principal – in our case Citigroup- they might see a potential to profit from selling their findings to other corporations.

I wa too afraid and uncomfortable to do the things I used to love, such as stay at a friends, go to the movies, or even attend mass of Sunday mornings. I would have panic attacks often and would be embarrassed and insecure because people didn’t understand why I was so worked up.
