Data-focused creative with a deep music and tech background.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Houston-based creative technologist with a background that spans education, audio production, and digital content coordination. I’ve spent over a decade in the music scene as a performer, DJ, and audio engineer, and I’ve worked professionally managing compliance and data accuracy as a 504 Program Analyst for a major school district.
My technical toolkit includes Excel (advanced), data QA practices, documentation systems like Google Workspace and Notion, and emerging skills in SQL and Python. I’ve also been a hobbyist in the AI space and have hands-on experience with tools like Ableton Live, metadata tagging platforms, and streaming services both as a user and creator.
I care deeply about precision, clarity, and cultural integrity—whether I’m auditing a dataset, moderating content, or mixing a track. I’m drawn to mission-aligned companies that value both technical excellence and human insight, especially in music, media, or platform-centered roles.
