About me

I connect business priorities, people and data.

Business perspective. Technical depth. Leadership that moves work forward.

I help organizations turn fragmented information and manual processes into trusted data and useful business answers. With more than 13 years in BI and data delivery, supported by a broader technology and business background, I connect the business question with the technical work needed to answer it.

My work spans advanced SQL, data modeling, integration and business intelligence. I translate stakeholder needs into reusable datasets, shared metrics and practical data products, with clear business rules and validation that help people use the results confidently.

Alongside hands-on delivery, I have guided analysts, data engineers and external partners, shaped analytics priorities with executives and evaluated technology investments against business needs. I stay close to the work through analysis, troubleshooting and independent validation. I also use approved AI tools to support development and automation, reviewing results against source data and business requirements.

I welcome opportunities centered on individual technical contribution, data-product ownership or team leadership. I enjoy taking responsibility for a clear area of work, collaborating with others and turning business needs into dependable results.
