Make data usable. Keep it reliable.

My work starts with imperfect sources and ends with data that business teams can use. Along the way, I model, test, monitor and document it.

I work on batch and streaming pipelines, medallion architectures, and star and snowflake schemas. I also handle day-to-day production operations: incidents, performance, on-call support and knowledge sharing.
