What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on role in payments or FinTech where I can use SQL and fraud/KYC expertise, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into larger risk or analytics responsibilities within a data-driven team.

I'm a detail-oriented Application Support Specialist and Data Analyst with hands-on experience in SQL (Oracle), Power BI, Tableau, Linux, and advanced Excel. I thrive at the intersection of technology and insight—resolving issues, streamlining processes, and turning complex datasets into clear, actionable business intelligence.

With a strong foundation in technical troubleshooting and data visualization, I help teams make smarter, faster decisions. Whether it’s solving critical system incidents, building dashboards that tell a story, or scripting queries that uncover hidden patterns—I bring both analytical sharpness and operational reliability.

Let’s connect if you:
Need someone who speaks fluent SQL and business
Believe insights should be beautiful, fast, and functional
Value clarity, consistency, and continuous improvement
