About
I work where business priorities meet technology execution.
My path runs from data engineering, through AI and solution analysis, to IT business partnering in strategy and architecture. One question runs through all of it: how does this technology decision help the people who asked for it?
Journey
From data engineering to business partnering
Select a stage to see the perspective it gave me.
Data Engineering
Perspective gained
Reliable data is a product, not a by-product.
Pipelines, data marts and reporting foundations taught me that trust is built long before a dashboard opens.
Types of problems
- Data pipelines and data marts
- Reporting foundations
- Data quality and governance

- From operational events to forecast-ready analytics Illustrative
AI & Solution Analysis
Perspective gained
A good solution starts as a well-framed question.
Analysing AI and BI solutions moved my attention from how data moves to what people are trying to decide.
Types of problems
- Framing AI and BI use cases
- Requirements into feasible designs
- Governance and delivery alignment

IT Business Partner
Perspective gained
Technology decisions need a business owner and an honest trade-off.
Today I connect business priorities with architecture and delivery, keeping decisions governed and outcomes measurable.
Types of problems
- Business and technology alignment
- Architecture options, risks and roadmaps
- Delivery coordination across teams

Principles
How I make decisions
Start with the decision.
Work backwards from what someone has to decide.
Make trade-offs visible.
Every option costs something. Write it down early.
Design for the maintainer.
A new team member should be able to run and change it.
Govern as you deliver.
Ownership and auditability built in beat controls bolted on.
Separate known from assumed.
Say which parts are verified and which are still hypotheses.

Working on something between business and technology?
I would like to hear the problem, not only the proposed solution.
