01 / About

A practical bridge from questions to decisions.

My work sits where data, technology, and real-world needs meet.

With a foundation in electronics and graduate training in big data analytics and marketing research, I bring both technical curiosity and a business-focused point of view to analysis.

I’ve produced reports, forecasts, and market assessments; extracted and cleansed data with SQL; and built projects that turn complex inputs into something people can use. I care about making the work accurate, maintainable, and clear to the people who rely on it.
