Summary
I am a dedicated and motivated business orientated professional with over 9 years of experience in the Information Technologies field.
I first started my career as an IT support technician and after 4 years in the network infrastructure space, I decided it was time to focus my attention into the world of programming and business intelligence.
I now hold nearly 5 years’ worth of experience as a developer using the different Qlik products such as QlikView, Qlik Sense and Qlik SaaS to name a few.
I pride myself in adding meaningful value into all of my endeavors. Whether I'm working as an individual or as part of a team, I strive to perform with professionalism, commitment and reliability.
