CTOs and business owners come to me when reporting eats up too much time, data is scattered, and AI feels like a buzzword instead of a tool that actually helps.
I help banks, fintechs, and growing companies automate operational and regulatory reporting, implement task tracking and business intelligence, and bring AI into everyday work — from quick prototypes to production‑ready solutions.
// A few things I've delivered along the way
- At WALLETTO, automated regulatory reporting (CESOP, P0607), built daily reporting pipelines (Airflow, KNIME, Power BI), rolled out a no‑code platform (Creatio), and led Copilot automation use cases and training.
- At Western Union, implemented LEAN alongside McKinsey, trained 150+ colleagues on self‑service analytics, drove ServiceNow adoption past 70%, and led global Workday onboarding — earning WU STAR recognition along the way.
- At Amazon Logistics in Germany, partnered with Operations and Data Science to build finance plans accurate to single digits while the business roughly doubled.
I'm Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and SAFe Scrum Master certified, and equally at home in SQL, Tableau, Power BI, Alteryx, and the latest AI tooling.
What people consistently say about working with me: I dig deep into processes, push for continuous improvement, and genuinely enjoy helping teams and people grow.
If reporting, automation, BI, or practical AI adoption is on your roadmap, let's talk — I'm always happy to help.
