I've led data strategy programs that put governance guardrails (standards, security, and management practices) in place, define personas, and build a culture of analysis and predictive automation. The result: proactive, data-driven decisions instead of 'gut' reactions to a changing landscape.
I design and roll out data literacy programs so teams can read, write, and reason with data the same way. By establishing a shared vocabulary and practices, I've helped organizations reduce internal friction and actually use their data to drive outcomes.
I build automations so analysts spend time on analysis—not repetitive tasks. Using tools like Power Automate, I've shipped bots that enforce data standards, improve data quality, and run day-to-day processes reliably.
I help organizations adopt the Microsoft Power Platform (Power Automate, Power Apps, Power BI) to enable citizen development—safely. I set up governance, centers of excellence, and coaching so domain experts can ship solutions faster without creating shadow IT.
I architect, clean up, and modernize SharePoint so it actually supports content and knowledge management. Paired with Teams and the Power Platform, I've rebuilt environments with proper administration, automation, and information architecture.
I design and ship scalable web apps. I work with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks like SvelteKit (this site is one), Tailwind, and Bootstrap, and I handle deployment pipelines end-to-end.
I win work by investing in relationships and partnering—even with competitors when it benefits the client. I have a track record of qualifying and capturing new business and building teams from my network to deliver.
I use Figma to turn ideas into tangible wireframes and prototypes, aligning stakeholders early and reducing overall delivery time through fast iteration.
I plan and run campaigns that people actually want to engage with. From content strategy to execution, I focus on material that earns attention and gets shared.
