I’m a Data Engineer with a passion for building scalable, high-impact data solutions that drive research and business growth. With a foundation in computer science from Purdue University and experience across healthcare and tech, I specialize in data architecture, database management, and automating workflows. Currently, I’m contracted to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) through Axle Informatics, where I've been promoted twice in two years for my contributions to projects like the Rare Disease Alert System (RDAS). My work on RDAS has centered around designing high-availability databases, optimizing data transfer, and integrating pipelines that enhance data accessibility for healthcare professionals and patients.Beyond my role at NIH, I founded Leadman Properties & Services LLC, where I manage the development of PROJEX, a mobile application for home services and project management. This venture has allowed me to combine my technical skills with business acumen, overseeing everything from UI/UX design to database requirements, and coordinating a talented team to bring the app to life.Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working on projects that merge data with purpose. From building machine learning models to support mental health research at Indiana University to contributing to award-winning, user-centered knowledge graphs, I’m committed to pushing the boundaries of what data engineering can accomplish.My technical toolkit includes Python, SQL, Spark, AWS, and more, and I thrive on collaborative, cross-functional projects that require both analytical precision and creative problem-solving. Whether it's developing predictive analytics models or creating automated workflows for real-time data processing, I’m excited by challenges that allow me to make a tangible impact.
