SUMMARY

• Data governance professional with 20 years of experience in operations reporting and analysis, database development, data warehouse execution and maintenance, data integrity, and master data management.

I maintain the organization's data sets, tables and databases, ensuring accuracy, consistency and quality control. This oversight leads to more robust and reliable reporting, analysis, management decision-making tools, and compliance.
