What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my data expertise while fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.

I am a dedicated Data Specialist with over 12 years of experience in data quality management, integration, and governance. My journey has taken me through various sectors, including investment, mining, health, utilities, and government, where I have honed my skills in data migration and reporting. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive strategic decisions and enhance operational efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led numerous data projects, utilizing tools such as SQL, SSIS, and PowerBI. My role as a Scrum Master has equipped me with the ability to manage agile teams effectively, ensuring that projects are delivered on time and meet the highest standards of quality. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy mentoring junior data engineers to foster their growth and development.
