About

A little
about me.

I’m a data analyst based in New York, focused on turning data into clear, actionable insights. My work combines analytical thinking with visual storytelling, using tools like SQL, Tableau, and Python to create clear and impactful work.

Outside of data, I’m building a photography practice centered on capturing the world with intention. Through both photography and video, I focus on light, composition, and perspective. This consists of documenting places, moments, and everyday scenes in a way that feels thoughtful and deliberate.

I believe the same attention to detail that creates a compelling image also drives impactful data work — where how something is presented is just as important as the insight itself.
