Data Scientist & Analytics Engineer

Helping translate industrial complexity into pricing intelligence, structured decisions, and practical AI workflows.

Across seven years at HOLT CAT, I have grown from business-facing analysis into data science, analytics engineering, and enterprise data platform work. That progression shaped how I build: start with the stakeholder problem, learn the operating model, then design the data system behind the decision.

What I bring to the table

Operational context, technical depth, and a record of turning analysis into systems.

Strong Business Partnership

I make it a priority to deeply understand the business context. My strong suit is partnering directly with stakeholders to build systems they trust.

Analytics engineering depth

I can model the warehouse, write the SQL, shape the semantic layer, and explain the metric to operators.

Applied AI without the theater

I use AI to accelerate refactors, pipeline delivery, anomaly review, and repetitive financial workflows.

Lead Data Analyst, HOLT CAT

work

Geospatial & Demographic Market Analysis for Facility Expansion

Conducted a comprehensive demographic and market share analysis that directly justified the capital expenditure and development of a new full-service operating facility.

Architecture

  • Geospatial clustering models of customer migration patterns and fleet density
  • Multi-variable regression incorporating population growth, regional GDP, and competitor share
  • Interactive map visualizations and executive scenario-modeling calculators
  • Financial feasibility and market share capture projections

Impact

  • Directly resulted in the approval and construction of a new full-service operating facility.
  • Drastically improved regional market share and reduced service technician travel times.
  • Established a data-driven framework for future real estate and territory expansion planning.

Net Worth & Cashflow Management Engine

Developed a high-performance personal finance tracker to aggregate family cashflow, budgeting logs, and long-term investment progress.

Architecture

  • Serverless API built using Vercel Serverless Functions and Supabase
  • Cron pipeline keep-alive system to prevent database cold-start latency
  • Custom transaction caching layers for speed optimization
  • Interactive visualization dashboards using Recharts for surplus tracking

Impact

  • Centralized transaction data and budgeting routines into a single platform.
  • Established real-time cashflow projections and automated anomaly alerts.
  • Optimized database performance to run queries in under 50ms using strict indexing.

Public proof

The two projects a recruiter can inspect more deeply right now.

Most of my highest-leverage enterprise work is proprietary. These public case studies show how I think when the implementation details can be shared more openly: data model, workflow design, backend decisions, and product tradeoffs.

Enterprise case studies stay on the homepage because the business outcomes are real, but the code and underlying data cannot be shared publicly.

These deeper pages are where I expose the implementation context I cannot always attach to work projects.
