I hold a PhD in Statistics and have built my career across data science, data engineering, and cloud architectures. I have led the design of modern data platforms and the translation of those platforms into solutions that support analytics, AI, and operational My experience spans Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, Fivetran, AWS, and Azure, with a focus on how these components work together as systems rather than isolated tools. I design architectures, solution patterns, and GTM frameworks that allow organizations to move from fragmented environments to coherent platforms that can be delivered, supported, and expanded over In my current work, I operate in a presales and advisory capacity, working directly with clients, sales teams, and delivery organizations to shape solutions, guide architectural decisions, and drive adoption. I build the connective layer between platform capability, customer need, and commercial Earlier in my career, I worked as a data scientist and in applied statistical roles, which informs how I approach data modeling, system design, and AI.
