ENTERPRISE DATA & GEOSPATIAL ANALYTICS LEAD

Midlothian, VA, USA *******.*****.*@*****.*** 804-***-**** LinkedIn

SUMMARY

Enterprise data leader with 25 years across the full data lifecycle — sourcing RF, GIS, and enterprise data from dozens of upstream systems; governing it through the ownership models, standards, and quality frameworks that turn fragmented, ad hoc practices into a single trusted operating standard; modeling it into Kimball-based warehouse architecture; turning it into spatial intelligence across the ArcGIS Enterprise ecosystem; and delivering it as Power BI and Tableau dashboards that drive same-day executive decisions.

Served as Esri SME on a multi-million-dollar enterprise GIS steering committee, brings 15+ years of hands-on Alteryx Designer and Server expertise, and partners across engineering and business teams to make governance a living, adopted practice — not a binder on a shelf.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

•Source: Built pipelines processing 10TB of vector and raster telecom data monthly; cut manual collection and extraction 60%+.

•Govern: Esri SME on a multi-million-dollar enterprise GIS steering committee; raised audit compliance 25% via the Atoll protocol overhaul.

•Model: Delivered zero-loss database migrations at 99.8% accuracy, reducing operational downtime 82% across 15+ datasets.

•Map: Designed a national GIS-enabled RF architecture that cut spatial-processing time 35% across 50+ markets.

•Visualize: Enabled 30% faster executive reporting across 12 business units through Power BI, SSIS, and SQL Server enhancements.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Verizon Wireless — Data Consultant III June 2025 – April 2026

Richmond, VA

•Engineered end-to-end spatial and analytic pipelines using Alteryx, ArcGIS Pro, and ArcGIS Enterprise Portal, boosting geospatial-processing efficiency 45%.

•Built high-volume geospatial and time-series ingestion pipelines in Alteryx and ArcGIS Pro, processing 10TB of vector and raster telecom data monthly.

•Architected automated workflow frameworks across Google Workspace using advanced Apps Script integrations (Sheets, Drive, Gmail, Forms), driving a 60%+ reduction in manual collection and extraction workflows.

•Partnered with Data Owners and Stewards across departments to document data requirements, support governance checkpoints, and resolve reporting gaps for enterprise datasets.

•Built ArcPy-driven cleansing and filtering logic at the point of ingestion that improved compliance adherence and data quality 10–15%, strengthening stewardship standards across enterprise spatial datasets.

•Identified critical data profiling gaps and built custom pipelines with advanced validation and cleansing logic, boosting data processing efficiency 40%.

•Orchestrated SQL Server and PostgreSQL geospatial ingestion workflows to generate subscriber-based RSRP/SINR contours via the ArcGIS Portal suite, lifting predictive coverage validation accuracy ~20%.

•Developed Python- and ArcPy-driven predictive and time-series forecasting models integrated into ArcGIS workflows, improving project success rates 30% and resource-allocation accuracy.

•Designed CI/CD pipelines for automated model deployment, monitoring, and version control, and managed data flow design within governed SQL Server/SSIS ETL pipelines.

T-Mobile — Senior Systems Architect – Coverage Strategy August 2020 – October 2024

Remote

•Engineered zero-loss MongoDB-to-SQL Server and SQL Server-to-Snowflake ELT/ETL migrations at 99.8% accuracy, reducing operational downtime 82% across 15+ complex datasets.

•Designed a Snowflake-to-SQL Server ingestion architecture that accelerated crowdsourced spatial-data processing and improved strategic decision-making.

•Designed DDL-driven star- and snowflake-schema models (Kimball methodologies) with formal primary/foreign-key relationships, replacing ad hoc structures with a documented, reusable data design standard.

•Led DataOps and governance programs — including quarterly audits across fifteen enterprise workflows — enhancing lineage accuracy, documentation standards, and compliance consistency organization-wide.

•Directed a comprehensive overhaul of the Atoll prediction-tool data protocol with automated validation, standardized transformations, and cleansing routines, increasing data integrity and audit compliance 25%.

•Spearheaded monthly Business Intelligence enhancements using Power BI, SSIS, and SQL Server, enabling 30% faster executive reporting across 12 business units over a 24-month project scope.

•Architected an enterprise data-pipeline and reporting ecosystem across SQL Server, Power BI, and Alteryx, strengthening coverage-strategy governance, asset compliance, and operational visibility.

•Mentored an eight-engineer distributed team through technical audits and targeted coaching on data modeling, ELT, SSIS, and source-intake standards, delivering solutions for 10+ major initiatives.

Sprint — RF Engineer III, National RF Engineering October 1999 – August 2020

Remote

•Served as Esri SME on a multi-million-dollar ArcGIS/Pitney Bowes enterprise GIS steering committee, defining the ownership models, decision structures, and metadata standards a fragmented, multi-department organization was missing.

•Designed a national GIS-enabled RF architecture integrating ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, and Atoll, reducing spatial-processing time 35% and expanding KPI visibility across 50+ markets.

•Developed and maintained a custom RDBMS with SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and SSIS, upgrading national data validation practices, lifecycle standards, and spatial insight capabilities 30%.

•Orchestrated and deployed automated geospatial pipelines in ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise Portal, streamlining drive-test and coverage-measurement ingestion to increase end-user operational efficiency 30%.

•Collected and sourced national RF drive-test and coverage-measurement data, aligning Agoop and Atoll predictive models with real-world performance to improve coverage accuracy 15%.

•Orchestrated advanced SQL Server ingestion workflows and automated validation rules to generate high-accuracy predictive models, improving data profiling accuracy ~20%.

•Led data governance initiatives across national RF engineering metrics, aligning location intelligence with strategic business goals.
