Problem-solving in action
Here's how I approach complex challenges and persist until finding the right solution.
50+ Million Row SQL Database Optimization
Performance OptimizationThe Challenge
A client's database search was taking 3-5 minutes to return results, crippling their application performance.

Results

- Database performance improved by 99%
- User experience transformed from frustrating to instant
- Client saved thousands in infrastructure costs
Power Platform Integration Challenge

A manufacturing company needed to integrate data from multiple sources (SQL Server, Project Online, Excel) into a unified view.
My Approach
I designed and built a comprehensive Power Platform solution using Power Apps, Power BI, and custom connectors to pull data from various sources and create a unified dashboard.
Results
- Real-time data integration across multiple systems
- Automated reporting reduced manual work by 80%
- Project managers gained instant visibility into budgets
