What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and innovative database solutions.

I am a seasoned SQL Server Database Administrator with over 9 years of experience in supporting Microsoft SQL Server databases both on-premises and in the cloud. My expertise extends to PostgreSQL, Azure, AWS, and GCP, where I have architected and deployed robust database solutions. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in high availability and disaster recovery to ensure seamless database operations.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed thousands of SQL servers, implemented performance tuning strategies, and automated repetitive tasks using PowerShell. My recent projects include migrating over 200 databases to Azure SQL and automating SQL server patching processes. I thrive in agile environments and enjoy collaborating with teams to drive efficiency and innovation in database management.
