What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead enterprise data governance that improves data quality, metadata and lineage visibility, regulatory reporting confidence, and secure data access—while building stewardship, adoption, and privacy-by-design controls that make data trustworthy and usable.

I’m a Data Governance and Data Trust professional with over 10 years of experience building and operationalizing enterprise Data Governance capabilities from the ground up within a Tier-1 financial institution in Sub-Saharan Africa.

I’ve led enterprise data governance and data quality initiatives across banking and financial services—covering metadata and lineage, stewardship, regulatory reporting controls, and data policy development—so organizations can earn operational trust in critical datasets.

In my current role as Senior Associate, Data Architecture & Engineering, I implement governance best practices across enterprise data engineering workflows, design and optimize ETL pipelines and data products, and use advanced SQL for data validation, profiling, and root-cause issue analysis.

I also strengthen secure, usable data access—architecting reporting with row-level security, enabling data democratization with lineage visibility, and driving governance adoption through stewardship models, Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog (EDC) enablement, and privacy-by-design controls.
