About

About Me

I am a dedicated Data Engineer with a Master's degree in Computer Science. With over three years of professional experience, including my current role at Squadron Data Inc. and prior work at Accenture, I specialize in designing scalable data pipelines, optimizing cloud-based solutions, and leveraging tools like Snowflake, AWS, and SQL to drive business value. My passion for staying at the forefront of data engineering and cloud technologies fuels my commitment to continuous learning, which I pursue through hands-on projects in big data, analytics, and modern data architectures.
