Data isn’t just numbers — it is the new gold. As a passionate and deeply knowledgeable data scientist, I have vast expertise enhancing, automating, and analyzing data processes. Since I first ignited my data career in the US Marine Corps, governing global operational systems in support of various missions — an experience that embedded my foundational knowledge of data management, helped define my personal philosophy of ensuring data integrity, and shaped my professional principles and perspective of data protection — I have been solving data challenges for businesses of all sizes by diving deep and transforming data to elevate productivity, efficiency, growth, and success.
