Data & analytics leadership · Semantic layers · AI-ready enterprise data

Building the trusted data foundations behind enterprise analytics and AI.

I lead data and analytics organizations that build governed data platforms, semantic layers, and enterprise metrics consumed across BI systems, AI agents, conversational analytics, and business applications.

Executive profile

Leadership for governed analytics and AI-driven data consumption.

Data and analytics leader specializing in the architecture, governance, and semantic foundations that enable trusted enterprise analytics and AI-driven data consumption.

Across 13+ years in SaaS and technology organizations, I have built business systems, data platforms, analytics engineering practices, governance forums, and self-service capabilities that help leaders make decisions from consistent and reusable information.

13+

Years across data and systems

Built governed data platforms, analytics capabilities, semantic architectures, and business systems across SaaS organizations.

Designed systems connecting product usage, account intelligence, and go-to-market execution.

$3M+

Technology budget

Managed systems technology portfolio and operating budget across business applications and GTM platforms.

35%+

Technology-spend ROI improvement

Improved technology-spend ROI through portfolio management, consolidation, and better operating discipline.

MCP

AI-ready metric consumption

Delivered a Cube semantic layer exposing governed metrics through Model Context Protocol for AI and analytics consumption.

AI-ready data architecture

Trusted enterprise information has to be designed before it can be automated.

I build the connective tissue between governed data assets, business definitions, BI tools, AI agents, conversational analytics, and operational applications.

Governance

Metrics that mean the same thing everywhere

Definitions, ownership, quality expectations, and reusable models create the trusted source of truth that executives, operators, dashboards, and AI systems can share.

Semantics

Semantic layers as an enterprise interface

A governed semantic layer turns warehouse logic into discoverable business concepts, reducing metric drift and making self-service consumption safer.

AI consumption

AI needs governed context, not just data access

AI agents and LLM-powered applications are most useful when they retrieve approved metrics, definitions, and context through controlled interfaces such as Model Context Protocol.

Featured case study teaser

Enterprise semantic layer for governed metrics and AI consumption.

At Jobber, I architected and delivered an enterprise semantic layer using Cube, establishing a governed source of truth for business metrics.

The semantic layer exposes trusted metrics through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface, enabling standardized consumption across AI agents, LLM-powered applications, conversational analytics, and self-service dashboards.

Leadership and operating model

Operating discipline that turns data teams into durable platforms.

I lead by creating clarity: clear definitions, clear ownership, clear delivery standards, and clear operating rhythms. The goal is to help teams move faster while preserving trust in the metrics, systems, and decisions they support.

  • Start with the business decision and work backward to the metric, model, system, and operating process required to support it.
  • Treat governance as an enablement system: lightweight enough to use, strong enough to prevent inconsistent definitions and low-trust reporting.
  • Build reusable platforms and standards so analytics engineers, data engineers, analysts, and business partners can compound each other's work.
  • Lead multidisciplinary teams with explicit ownership, practical documentation, and delivery habits that make quality repeatable.
