๐Ÿ‘ค About Me

I'm a full-stack data professional with 20+ years of IT experience, currently specializing in the complete data lifecycle - from engineering pipelines to delivering business insights. At DHL IT Services, I work across data engineering, analytics, and business intelligence to create end-to-end solutions.

My approach: Bridge enterprise-proven methods with modern data tools to deliver complete, maintainable data solutions.

๐ŸŽฏ What Makes Me Different

๐ŸŽฏ I Choose Boring Tools That Work

PostgreSQL over flavor-of-the-month databases. dbt for transformations humans can read. Proven architecture patterns that scale.

Result: Systems that work the same way in year 3 as day 1

๐Ÿ—๏ธ Enterprise + Modern Stack Bridge

Deep Microsoft ecosystem expertise (Azure Solutions Architect Expert). Modern open-source proficiency (PostgreSQL, dbt, Airflow).

Rare combination: Most consultants know one world or the other

๐Ÿ’ฐ Focus on Total Cost of Ownership

Better results for 1/10th the cost of trendy alternatives. No expensive rewrites when tools go out of fashion.

Easier hiring: More people know PostgreSQL than the latest vector DB

๐Ÿ’ญ My Professional Philosophy

"Experience teaches you what actually works long-term"

  • Sustainable over clever: I choose maintainable solutions that teams can support for years
  • Proven over cutting-edge: Battle-tested tools beat the latest trends when reliability matters
  • Business value first: Technical decisions should always serve clear business objectives
  • Hybrid expertise: The future is about integrating enterprise and modern open-source approaches
