What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead scalable analytics platforms, AI-assisted workflows, self-service ecosystems, and governance initiatives that create measurable business impact.

At Newsela, I lead analytics engineering delivery, data product quality, and technical standards across Analytics and Platform Data. I built AI-assisted dashboard-generation practices that save roughly eight hours per project and improve delivery speed by about 40%.

At Grupo Boticário, I led platform analytics, cloud optimization, governance, and self-service enablement across an enterprise data ecosystem. My AI-assisted monitoring solution reduced operational effort by 80% and generated more than US$600K in cloud savings.

I also created reusable Platform Analytics POC frameworks, with one initiative leading Google’s Product team to implement five of seven recommendations. Through technical training, governance resources, and a SQL and Data Preparation program, I supported analytics enablement for thousands of users and employees.

Earlier at Labenu, I built executive reporting, KPI frameworks, automation workflows, and scalable data products that improved efficiency by 30%. I enjoy translating business needs into clear metrics, reliable analytics solutions, and practical delivery standards.
