I build secure data pipelines and dashboards that turn complex data into operational decisions.
What I'm looking for
At the Department of National Defence, I lead data initiatives across Canadian Armed Forces bases, extracting complex Oracle data, improving SQL performance by approximately 30%, and delivering 70+ interactive Tableau dashboards with role-level security.
Previously, I established Cloud Works' data function and enterprise KPIs, built reporting in Power BI, Tableau, SAP BusinessObjects, and Excel, and trained cross-functional teams on analytics and data governance. Across OpenText, Finastra, Capgemini, and Ontario's Ministry of Health, I've combined SQL, QA, data reconciliation, privacy administration, and stakeholder collaboration to improve data integrity and reporting outcomes.
