As a Senior Database Administrator with 9 years of IT experience, I specialize in managing mission-critical database environments, particularly with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB. My expertise lies in optimizing performance, ensuring high availability, and executing seamless data migrations. I thrive in complex environments, leveraging my strong background in microservices architecture and cloud computing to deliver robust solutions.
In my current role as DBA Team Lead at MLK Health Care, I support critical healthcare projects, focusing on installation, configuration, and security of PostgreSQL databases. I have successfully implemented automated failover strategies and optimized database settings to enhance performance. My previous experience at Algoworks involved managing over 100 production and staging servers, where I honed my skills in database replication, backup automation, and performance monitoring.
I am passionate about collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive technical solutions and improve database reliability. My commitment to excellence and proactive approach to problem-solving have consistently contributed to the success of the projects I have been involved in.
