At Murphy, I lead database and data-platform consulting engagements focused on secure ETL/ELT workflows, performance, and production reliability. I assess security and data-quality risks, then develop practical remediation and automation.

At Heidelberg Materials US, Inc., I administered 120+ SQL Server databases and protected sensitive data with encryption and access-governance controls. I led the migration of 30+ databases to Azure SQL Managed Instance with zero unplanned downtime.

At Data Transformation Corporation, I supported SQL Server and PostgreSQL production environments, improving query and ETL performance through tuning and indexing. Earlier, I developed C++ and Java applications and built Perl/Shell release-automation pipelines.
