### Work

I currently work for [dbt Labs](https://www.getdbt.com) as a Resident Architect. My role focuses on helping dbt Labs' biggest dbt Cloud customers get more out of the platform, and ultimately steward them towards a more highly-functioning data team and platform. I combine a mix of technical hands-on experience with more strategic and architectural frameworks to help data teams, taking specific interests in data modeling practices, platform engineering principles, and developer workflows impact on productivity. I am a certified professional in a number of technologies, including [dbt](https://www.getdbt.com/), [Google Cloud](https://cloud.google.com/), and [Databricks](https://www.databricks.com/). I'm also a contributor to the [dbt-core](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core) project.
