my Portfolio
About

My passion for data was kindled when I first read about John Snow's (not the one from GOT!) pioneering work in collecting and visualizing data to identify the cause of the cholera spread in 1854. I thoroughly enjoy working with data, particularly in building data pipelines, managing data infrastructure, and creating data visualizations.

Over 4 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 of professional experience and certified Databricks Data Engineer , I developed the ability to solve complex problems and provide teams with valuable insights using data. I am proficient in various tools and technologies, including Python, Snowflake, DBT, AWS, ETL, and SQL. What sets me apart is my willingness to take on challenges that involve learning new technologies and tools.

Some of my achievements at work are listed below:

  • Worked on data cleaning and ingestion of bruise data to enable researchers to study bruises, which can help bring justice to domestic violence victims.
  • I identified and resolved missing transactions between the Data Lake and MySQL database, resulting in a 10% improvement in data quality within the Data Lake.

In my free time, I enjoy learning new stuff, watching documentaries, swimming, hiking, and cycling.
