⚡ I build data warehouses that run faster and cost less. One client went from a $4,000 monthly bill to $40, with query times dropping from 84 hours to 2. I help SaaS companies, agencies, and data-heavy startups move off slow, expensive setups and onto Snowflake, BigQuery, and dbt pipelines they can actually trust.
