I'm a data analyst who likes to get technical — the kind who learned early that a dashboard nobody trusts is worse than no dashboard at all. Most of my work is turning fragmented data into SQL pipelines, BI dashboards, and answers that a stakeholder can act on Monday morning.
What sets me apart from a typical analyst is how far I'll push when a problem calls for it: a BioBERT NLP pipeline pulling structured findings out of biomedical literature, a five-service AWS system scoring health risk in near real-time, a normalized SQL database that holds its integrity under load. I reach for Python, ML, and cloud tooling when standard reporting runs out of road — but the goal is always the decision, not the model.
I just finished my M.S. in Information Technology at Arizona State (4.0 GPA) and I'm looking for my next role — data analyst or analytics engineer — in Phoenix, remote, or anywhere in the US. If you've got messy data and a decision riding on it, I'd like to talk.
