About
I am an experienced ETL / BI Developer with over a decade of expertise across retail, logistics, and banking environments. I am passionate about designing and delivering effective, optimized ETL solutions.
I began my career in 2012 as a BI Consultant at Adapt IT, gaining broad exposure through multiple client projects before moving into a permanent role at DSV in 2015, where I focused on report development and operational support. Since joining Discovery Bank in 2017—prior to its public launch—I have specialised in back-end ETL development, with a strong emphasis on performance, scalability, and data integrity. I consider strong collaboration skills, clear communication, and the ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams as key strengths.
