About

Dedicated Data Enthusiast with a strong background in Business Intelligence and cloud technologies. Currently leading the migration of Switzerland Global Enterprise’s on-premise BI system to a modern cloud-based environment using Snowflake and Tableau. This project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2025. As it concludes, I am exploring new professional opportunities where I can apply my analytical skills, technical expertise, and experience in data-driven decision-making to create meaningful impact.

I enjoy putting my energy into innovative projects and activities so that the company can break new ground. Tasks that combine business and technical content suit me best.

Direct contact with people is very important to me and should be a significant part of my work.
