Who I am

Engineer. Analyst. Builder.

A rare combination of Electrical Engineering and Business Analysis — I speak the language of both systems and strategy.

Most BAs understand business. Most engineers understand systems. Very few understand both.

I hold a BSc in Electrical Engineering and a PG Diploma in Business Analysis from the University of Calgary. I've worked across SaaS, academic research, and freelance consulting — gathering requirements, mapping processes, building dashboards, and automating workflows.

My career hasn't been a straight line. That's my biggest advantage. I translate between teams that usually struggle to understand each other.

Background
Engineering meets analysis
BSc Electrical Engineering + PG Diploma in BA from UCalgary. I understand how systems are built, not just how businesses talk about them.
Delivery
Requirements that stick
BRDs, functional specs, user stories, process mapping, Agile. Nothing gets lost between the boardroom and the dev team.
Automation
I build, not just document
Real workflows using n8n, Flowise, and LLMs. If it's repetitive and eats your team's time, it can be automated.
Mindset
Whatever it takes
If I don't know the tool, I learn it. If the API is broken, I debug it.
