Built with Passion

Data Lover. Practical Builder.

From reliable data platforms to shared learning and hands-on ideas, this is where curiosity turns into something useful.

Senior Data Engineer · Data Magician

I genuinely love what I do. I grew from a Data Analyst into a Senior Data Engineer, carrying my curiosity across the automotive and energy industries through Auto-IT, AGL, Shell Energy, and now SmartestEnergy Australia in renewable energy. Being recognised with Best of 2024 at Shell Energy reinforced the care and energy I bring to my work. Today, I turn technology into useful products and work end to end across Retail Operations, IT, Risk, Trading, and Finance to understand the bigger picture and create lasting value.

Mentoring & Growing Together

Through mentoring, lecturing, and 1:1 interview guidance, I share practical experience, explore ideas with others, and create a welcoming space for questions. I enjoy helping people connect technical knowledge to real situations, build confidence, and identify practical next steps. Supporting others also gives me fresh perspectives and helps me become a more thoughtful engineer and communicator. I also host and take part in Lunch & Learn sessions at work because sharing what I learn helps knowledge travel further and pushes me to keep learning alongside others.
