Solving problems, one line of code at a time

I am a Master's student in Computer Science at George Mason University with a data analytics and business intelligence focus, supported by hands-on data engineering experience.

Summary

I position my work as primarily data analysis and business intelligence (about 60%), complemented by data engineering (about 40%). I use SQL, Python, and BI tools to analyze data, reconcile reporting, and deliver reliable KPI insights, backed by experience building and validating data pipelines.

As a Data Engineering Intern at George Mason University, I build and orchestrate data workflows with Python, PySpark, Airflow, and AWS. My previous analytics roles focused on SQL-based reporting, data reconciliation, and operational insights for business stakeholders.
