Conquense, con base en Madrid, dando guerra en el universo de los datos.

Apasionado por convertir datos en historias y soluciones. Mi experiencia se centra en el diseño y optimización de modelos de datos, creación de dashboards de alto impacto en Power BI y desarrollo de consultas avanzadas en SQL. He trabajado en proyectos que van desde reporting regulatorio financiero hasta la mejora de procesos en áreas de atención al cliente post-venta, pasando por estudios de mercado sobre telefonía móvil. Siempre buscando claridad, eficiencia y valor en cada visualización o análisis.

Además, disfruto compartiendo conocimientos. Mi objetivo es combinar técnicas avanzadas con un enfoque accesible para hacer que los datos trabajen para nosotros, no al revés.

Si algo me define es la mezcla de rigor técnico y creatividad, porque creo firmemente que un buen análisis no solo debe ser correcto, sino también contar una historia que inspire acción.
