HR · Data · AI — Hybrid profile at the intersection of enterprise HR systems, data analytics, and AI workflows.

I work in global HR IT at Nestlé — I keep enterprise HR systems running across countries, investigate failures, and build the tools that make operations more efficient. One of two analysts globally trusted with mass payroll data loads for entire country workforces. Created an HR IT Audit service from zero that reduced mislabeled errors by 95% across LATAM.
