I build cloud data pipelines and self-service reporting solutions for enterprise teams.
What I'm looking for
At Northbridge Insurance, I build cloud data solutions for actuarial, claims, finance, and underwriting teams. I use Azure Data Factory, Snowflake, dbt, Python, and Power BI to turn enterprise data into reliable self-service reporting.
I've migrated on-premises databases and SSIS workloads to Snowflake and dbt, built incremental data models, and exposed more than 1,500 attributes through a semantic layer. I also automate month-end processes, schedule batch workloads with Control-M, and provide Level 2/3 production support for business-critical systems.
Earlier, I developed C#/.NET and SQL applications for organizations including Toronto District School Board, the College of Family Physicians of Canada, Halton Region, Lombard Canada, and Canadian Tire. I bring experience across application modernization, database development, web services, ETL, testing, and production operations.
