About

I’m a data professional who loves turning complex healthcare data into actionable insights. My career started in data engineering—building and optimizing pipelines with Big Data technologies like Hadoop and Spark, using ETL tools such as Apache NiFi and Kafka, and working across cloud platforms including AWS and GCP. Today, as a Provider Analytics Data Scientist at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas, I combine that engineering foundation with advanced analytics and visualization. I design automated SQL workflows and build interactive Power BI dashboards that help leaders understand provider spend, track reimbursement changes, and make smarter decisions. Whether I’m streamlining manual processes, uncovering trends in millions of claims, or collaborating with cross-functional teams, my goal is the same: to deliver clear, trustworthy insights that drive better outcomes for the business and the people it serves.
