"I move organizations onto elegant, full-stack data platforms — built to scale and change with a fast-moving landscape."

A highly technical data leader and hands-on engineer. I've moved organizations of many sizes and industries onto data platforms that let them serve analytics- and AI-ready data to consumers, and I build with accessibility and scalability in mind, so the platform can grow and change without a rebuild.

What I build

Data platforms and the AI on top of them

Focus areas

  • Data engineering & pipelines
  • Data architecture
  • AI application & tooling development
  • Analytics platform development

Project types I lead

  • Data migration & modernization
  • Greenfield Snowflake builds
  • Data & analytics platform buildout
  • AI tooling & agent development

Selected work

Migrations, platforms, and the savings that follow

  • Migrated a full data-orchestration platform to Azure Data Factory with Azure Functions — roughly $36K/year in compute savings.
  • Built Snowflake platforms, pipelines, and data governance from scratch for multiple clients — over $500K saved across compute inefficiencies and cost leakage.
  • Led a customer-facing loan portal as product manager and engineer: unified disparate data sources and cut ~$160K/year in Salesforce costs. Built the frontend, backend, and security on Azure.
  • Built an internal React app for loan officers to stand up new prospects in LOS systems — full frontend, backend, and security on Azure.
  • Stood up data-integration pipelines between banking systems using Matillion, Azure Data Factory, and Snowflake stored procedures.
  • Architected a full migration from legacy SQL Server to Snowflake + Azure Data Factory — backfill, incremental loads, CI/CD, and engineering training.
  • Architected and built Azure Data Factory, Snowflake, and Matillion instances for a large brick-and-mortar retail chain; continuous Airtable → Snowflake pipelines via Estuary.
