What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Business Intelligence and Data Engineering Consultant with 10+ years of experience designing, building, and optimizing enterprise-scale BI, data warehousing, and AI-powered BI automation and analytics solutions. I’m Microsoft DP-600 certified, with deep expertise across Power BI, SQL Server, SSIS, SSRS, SSAS Tabular, and Azure data services.
I specialize in delivering end-to-end data platforms that enable data-driven decision making, while optimizing DAX and semantic models for reliable performance. As a Power BI subject matter expert, I partner closely with stakeholders and mentor teams—building governance and best practices that scale across business domains.
In my recent work, I’ve led AI-enabled BI initiatives like an intelligent chatbot using Python and the OpenAI ChatGPT API, and I’ve automated LLM-driven release notes with LangChain/LangGraph and Azure OpenAI—cutting documentation time by 85%. I’ve also built and modernized enterprise data warehouses, delivered 30+ Power BI dashboards and SSRS reports, improved deployment speed using CI/CD automation, and maintained 99.5% dashboard uptime through advanced DAX/M tuning and SQL performance optimization.
