Practice

The craft sits between systems and story.

Governed BI

Reusable datasets, metric definitions, refresh discipline, and reporting that survives scrutiny.

Data flow

SQL, Alteryx, Fabric, and warehouse patterns that make reporting pipelines inspectable and repeatable.

Practical AI

Copilot, agents, RAG, and generated narratives added where they speed up analysis without removing review.

Presentation craft

Visual hierarchy, type, and interaction patterns shaped for leaders who need the answer quickly.

Selected work

Real artifacts, not decoration.

All projects

Method

Calm systems are designed before they are built.

The strongest analytics work feels inevitable because the messy parts have already been made legible.

01

Find the question

Start with the decision, audience, cadence, and owner before choosing a model or visual.

02

Make it defensible

Shape data, definitions, controls, and access so teams can trust the same answer.

03

Remove the manual drag

Automate recurring effort with pipelines, apps, and workflows that people can inspect.

04

Add intelligence carefully

Use AI to explain, draft, and accelerate while keeping judgment and review in the loop.

Next

Bring clarity to the next complex system.

I help teams modernize BI, sharpen executive reporting, and turn automation or AI ideas into practical analytics workflows.
