WORK HISTORY
Data Governance Specialist @Tenaska
Omaha, NE, US
I spearhead the implementation of a centralized data catalog using data.world to promote a “do-it-yourself” data analytics approach across the organization. My work focuses on consolidating metadata from diverse systems, including SQL Server, Azure Data Factory, and data warehouses, to break down data silos, enhance data discovery, and improve data lineage visibility.I completed multiple use cases by configuring and mapping metadata, which earned positive feedback and helped secure buy-in from data owners. I successfully integrated over resources—including ADF columns, tables, datasets, and Azure blobs—into the catalog, ensuring metadata accuracy, completeness, and streamlined accessibility.To support adoption and long-term success, I developed comprehensive training resources, including an Admin Playbook and User Manual, equipping administrators, stakeholders, and business users with the guidance needed to fully leverage the platform.Skills: Data Catalog Implementation, Metadata Management, Azure Data Factory, SQL Server, data.world, Data Lineage, Data Discovery, Data Governance, Change Management, Stakeholder Engagement, Training & Documentation, Data Architecture Integration
