What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead hands-on data quality, ETL, MDM, and test automation work where I can translate business rules into reliable validation frameworks and partner with engineering, governance, and business teams.

I've delivered data quality, ETL, and MDM testing across UnitedHealth Group/WellMed, Daiichi Sankyo, TCW Group, Travelers Insurance, Optum, Partners HealthCare, and Independent Health Association. I build validation frameworks that improve coverage, strengthen data integrity, and reduce manual testing effort.

At WellMed, I led Python-based ETL and data-validation automation using PyTest and Pandas, created HTML test reports, and built an ETL automation framework from scratch. At TCW Group, I implemented more than 100 Ataccama ONE data-quality rules, monitoring projects, stewardship workflows, and deployment validations.

I've worked hands-on with Ataccama, Informatica, IBM MDM, SQL, HiveSQL, Azure data services, SSIS, and large healthcare datasets. I enjoy translating business rules into reliable data-quality controls, collaborating with governance teams, and supporting releases from requirements through production validation.
