What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead data and AI teams that build modern, reliable platforms, strengthen governance and data literacy, and deliver measurable business outcomes through self-service analytics and automation.

At iLERNA, I lead Data & AI initiatives spanning data governance, architecture, agentic AI development, automation, and AWS-based data engineering.

Previously at The Knot Worldwide, I led Data Analytics, Data Engineering, and Data Architecture through mergers, consolidating global BI and self-service analytics with Qlik Sense and Metabase. I built scalable pipelines and an in-house, event- and cookie-based analytics platform linking near-real-time user behavior with transactions, KPIs, attribution, and LTV.

I have also founded and grown Buscorestaurantes.com, built data platforms from scratch serving 500+ users, and established BI teams and platforms at Emagister. Across 15+ years, I focus on reliable data, strong governance, data literacy, and teams that help every department make better decisions.
