about me

Technology Consultant with 3+ years of experience in enabling digital transformation for Fortune 500 clients. I'm super passionate about engineering products and driving change in modern businesses using the power of data.

My Software engineering experience powers me with the empathy to look at product development from the user's perspective, while my Analytics experience provides me the toolkit to mine answers from data. I'm currently pursuing my Masters in Analytics at the University of Minnesota, and am graduating in May 2020.

While I'm not thinking about the above, I'm thinking about music. I'm a professional singer/music producer with over 50,000 subscribers on Youtube. I also care deeply about LGBTQ+ issues.
