About me

I'm an emerging data analytics leader with a passion to turn data into valuable insights. With my background as both a Data Engineer and Data Scientist, I bridge the gap between technical implementation and strategic vision. I am also interested in human affairs and how data can be used to improve the human condition. I currently lead Zero Trust data architecture implementation and have developed some cool innovations like a keyless signature system and secure CI/CD pipelines with integrated security scanning. I love building secure data pipelines, implementing machine learning solutions, and helping organizations make better decisions with their data.

My Path

My path has taken me through many organizations including Child Care Aware of America, DC Public Schools, and Northern Virginia Family Service. Along the way, I've built organization-wide data governance frameworks, created serverless analytics pipelines in AWS, and designed monitoring tools that dramatically improved how teams operate.

I love learning--I am always learning something new--and this thirst for knowledge has led me to some interesting programs particularly in ML and AI (e.g., George Mason CDAO Executive Certificate, Johns Hopkins AI Project Management and Strategy Specialization via Coursera). I think what makes my approach unique is my interdisciplinary background. I studied both Computer Science and International Studies, which helps me see data challenges from multiple angles. I believe effective data solutions need both technical excellence and strategic understanding of organizational needs.
