Profile Summary

I am a technology enthusiast who firmly believes in developing straightforward processes to deliver high-quality software. With over 28 years of experience across IT, research, higher education, training, and independent consulting, I am committed to continuous improvement and learning. I have collaborated with clients from various countries, thriving in multicultural and competitive environments. I provide comprehensive software quality assurance training and offer expert consultancy services aimed at optimizing software development processes, enhancing efficiency, and implementing best practices. In my role as a data analyst, I focus on cleaning and preprocessing raw data to ensure accuracy and consistency. This involves identifying and resolving missing values, duplicates, and anomalies. Additionally, I analyze trends and patterns to extract key business insights. Currently, I am assisting teams in adopting artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Data mining, bio-inspired methods, data analysis, and machine learning are some of my areas of interest.
