My Story

With over 12 years of experience in software engineering and big data, I specialize in architecting and delivering scalable, high-performance data platforms and analytics solutions. I have a proven track record of leading end-to-end data migrations from on-premises systems to cloud platforms like Snowflake, Azure, and Amazon Redshift, modernizing data ecosystems and improving processing efficiency by up to 40%.

My expertise includes developing and optimizing ETL/ELT pipelines, designing enterprise-grade data warehouse solutions, and bridging business and technical teams to accelerate adoption and maximize value. I'm recognized for consistently delivering solutions that accelerate business outcomes and reduce operational costs.

Currently serving as Sr. Solutions Architect, Migrations at Snowflake, I engage directly with customers to design and implement target architectures, develop comprehensive migration plans, and contribute to product development by identifying gaps in customer needs. I'm passionate about creating automated solutions and building internal enablement tools to accelerate future sales cycles and improve customer onboarding efficiency.
