I'm a Data Engineer passionate about architecting next-generation analytics platforms and AI-powered data solutions that don't just process data, they democratize it. My mission is to build production-grade systems that make sophisticated data accessible to everyone, from technical teams to business stakeholders.
With a Master's in Information Science & Technology from Missouri University of Science and Technology, I've evolved from database optimization to full-stack data engineering, specializing in Azure cloud ecosystems, real-time data pipelines, and AI automation. My work spans from enterprise-scale ETL orchestration to embedded analytics solutions that deliver intelligence directly where decisions are made.
I thrive at the intersection of rigorous data engineering and AI innovation, where:
- Scalable architectures meet real-time insights
- Traditional SQL mastery evolves into modern Python solutions
- Data pipelines become intelligent automation systems
I believe the most impactful projects are those that haven't been built yet—solutions that push boundaries and create new standards in the industry.
