AWS Certified Data Engineer with 1.5+ years of production experience building scalable pipelines, streaming architectures, and ML-ready data systems. I bridge the gap between raw data and real decisions — whether that's a Medallion Architecture warehouse in Snowflake, a RAG pipeline powered by LangChain, or a low-latency FastAPI service at scale.
