What I'm looking for
I am a Business Intelligence and Data & Analytics professional with extensive experience building ETL pipelines, dashboards and data quality routines to enable better business decisions. I have worked across GCP (BigQuery, Looker), Databricks, Power BI, Excel/VBA and multiple RDBMS.
Throughout my career I have delivered data warehouses, automated ETL jobs with Pentaho and Python, developed reporting solutions in Power BI and Looker, and implemented data quality metrics and monitoring using Informatica, Hive and Teradata. I have led technical solutions that integrate SAP extracts, SharePoint and Power Platform automations to streamline processes and reporting.
I am results-oriented, focused on data accuracy, performance and end-user adoption, and I bring experience teaching technical subjects and mentoring teams. I seek roles where I can continue to design robust data solutions and translate complex data into clear, actionable insights.
