About

I am a process-oriented professional passionate about optimizing workflows and data-driven results. Starting as a Reporting Analyst at Nike EHQ, I developed expertise in data modeling, analysis, and visualization. I expanded my skill set as a Data Engineer at Allianz, focusing on managing data pipelines, implementing CI/CD workflows, and maintaining Linux server environments. With strengths in organization, collaboration, and thriving under pressure, I remain dedicated to lifelong learning and continually seek opportunities to grow my technical abilities in data engineering.
