Summary
I work at the intersection of data and people. With a background spanning Data Analysis, Data Engineering, and Business Intelligence, I've spent the last few years embedded in client environments — not just delivering technical work, but understanding the people behind the requests. That combination — technical depth and honest, direct communication — is what keeps clients coming back.
