United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Ford Motor Company, I lead Data Access and Controls initiatives, aligning access practices with compliance and audit frameworks including CCPA, GDPR, NIST, and ISO 27001. I also set requirements and built processes for Ford-Volkswagen Alliance data access.
I’ve been involved in developing DAP and AMP for access to GCP-ingested data, and developed a cross-environment exception-based access process with strict auditing standards. I also managed the decommissioning of Hadoop On-Prem.
At Trinity Health (HQ Michigan), I used Pandas to automate data cleansing and support new report generation, while maintaining historical data in Quickbase. At Integrated Design, Inc., I worked with data mappings and translations across source and destination systems, helping clients address data errors and configure product workflows.
Earlier, at Whirlpool Corporation, I worked on manufacturing process improvement, reporting tools, and data-flow transparency. I also led the ProPlanner project and a small Charybidis database and data-structure team developing tools to repurpose legacy data.
