Data Infrastructure Design and Development

If data is the lifeblood of a business, then infrastructure is its heart. ETL pipelines, data lakes, vendor integrations, warehousing, performance tuning, modernization, and cloud migrations form the foundational layer of a data-driven business.


Machine Learning and AI

Dark data refers to information assets that organizations collect, process, and store during regular business activities but fail to utilize for other purposes, such as analytics, business relationships, and direct monetization. In Splunk’s global research survey of over 1,300 business and IT decision-makers, 60 percent of respondents reported that more than half of their organization’s data is considered dark. Machine learning and AI tools, combined with domain knowledge, creativity, and common sense, have the power to turn dark data into actionable business insights. Using the rich set of tools in the Python ecosystem, I can help you leverage data to drive innovation.


Visualization & Reporting

Distilling data analytics into reports and visualizations makes it easier to act on the insights. Tools like Power BI, Tableau, and Dash can provide dashboards for live, interactive data.
