What I'm looking for
At FLSmidth, I build Power BI dashboards and reporting that turn operational, project, and commercial data into clearer executive decision support.
In Research & Development for Coarse Flotation Technology, I design and analyze experimental test campaigns, clean large-scale pilot datasets, and identify recovery trends and operational performance drivers.
I led development of a company-wide performance dashboard, creating measures and KPIs that improve visibility into project health and company performance. I also standardized reporting structures to strengthen cross-functional data transparency.
Through the Products Business Scorecard Initiative, I co-defined KPIs across sales, quality, and customer performance, while validating and reconciling data from multiple sources. I bring a Mechanical Engineering background with a Data Science emphasis and hands-on work in Power BI, Python, SQL, and structured data analysis.
