## About

```text
At Mars Confectionery Supply, I migrated key reporting to a cloud-based platform and translated a 20-year legacy Excel dataset into structured SQL and ETL logic. This strengthened the scalability, governance, and consistency of outputs used for analytical review and decision-making.

I maintain star-schema data models and ETL pipelines in SQL and Python, and reduced ETL processing time by 25%. I also defined KPI logic and built dashboards and standardized reporting for self-service BI and operational controlling.

At Siemens Mobility, Siemens Finance, I extracted, cleaned, and modeled ERP data for supply chain, materials management, and procurement analysis. I built SQL databases, MS Access tools, and advanced Excel models to examine lead times, compliance, and supplier performance.

At Deutsche Leasing, I analyzed more than 120 leasing portfolios for risk assessment and created weekly risk reports and ad hoc analyses. I’m currently completing a master’s degree focused on Business Statistics, Quantitative Methods, and Data Analysis.
