<h1>OVERVIEW</h1>
<p>I am a Senior Data Engineer looking to transition my skills to Data and Solution
Architecting as well as project management. I have spent the better part of the
last decade refining my abilities in taking business requirements and turning
those into actionable data engineering, analytics, and software projects with
trackable metrics. I believe in agnosticism when it comes to coding languages
and have experimented in my own time with many different languages. In my

Platform and AWS tools for ETL and data platform development as well as git
for version control and deployment using various IAC tools. I have also
conducted data analysis and modelling on business metrics to find relationships
between both staff and customer behavior and produced actionable
recommendations based on the conclusions. In a private context I have also
experimented with C, C# and Kotlin I am looking to further my career by taking
my passion for data engineering and analysis as well as web and software
development and applying it in a strategic context.</p>
