I’ve been taking things apart since I was a kid - computers, gadgets, anything with screws I wasn’t supposed to remove. Most of the time I even managed to put them back together.

That curiosity never really went away. Now I work as a Senior Manager in Data Science & BI, which is a fancy way of saying I build data systems, figure out why they break, and occasionally explain why “just put it in Excel” isn’t always the answer.

What I genuinely enjoy: the puzzle of performance tuning, designing systems that don’t collapse at scale, and sharing what I’ve learned - whether through writing, speaking, or helping someone debug a query that’s been haunting them.

I’m curious about where technology is headed, particularly AI and how it’s changing the way we work with data. And yes, I still tinker with gadgets in my spare time. Some habits stick.
