Senior Analytics & Applied Data Science Leader

Enterprise Data Strategy & Decision Systems | Consumer Credit & Risk Analytics | Data Governance & Model Validation

No Cold Handoffs: Logic, controls, validation, evidence, and interpretation travel together.

Senior analytics and applied data science leader with 16+ years of experience across Wells Fargo, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the U.S. Census Bureau.

I build enterprise data strategies and governed decision systems that connect:

  • business and regulatory requirements
  • source-data lineage and fitness
  • analytical methodology
  • decision and treatment logic
  • validation and effective challenge
  • implementation controls
  • monitoring and exception evidence
  • executive decision support
  • controlled operational follow-through

At Wells Fargo, I was promoted from Vice President to Executive Director while serving as principal analytical architect for Consumer Auto programs exceeding $1B in exposure and customer impact. My experience includes CPI analytical-system ownership from 2018–2025, leadership across 15+ additional remediations, enterprise credit-furnishing governance, and SME or peer-review support for 10+ additional credit-reporting matters.

At the OCC, I supported 16 economists and examination teams with longitudinal consumer-credit data, survival and logistic modeling, CECL and life-of-loan PD analysis, credit benchmarking, alternative-data engineering, and published research support.

My public portfolio demonstrates how those professional disciplines translate into enterprise credit strategy, governed decision systems, survival modeling, forensic data quality, reconciliation, regulatory remediation, model and data validation, and executive-ready analytical evidence.

What I Build

Enterprise Data Strategy

I integrate fragmented data, independently managed processes, and cross-functional requirements into governed analytical environments that support consistent execution and reliable executive decisions.

Decision Systems

I design transparent rule, strategy, and treatment frameworks with configurable parameters, account-level outcomes, reason codes, monitoring, and archived evidence.

Applied Data Science and Time-to-Event Analytics

I develop interpretable analytical frameworks that connect segmentation, survival and hazard modeling, scenario design, cross-validation, calibration, model diagnostics, and stakeholder evidence.

Model and Data Validation

I apply independent recalculation, challenger and benchmark analysis, source-to-target reconciliation, sensitivity testing, UAT, exception management, model diagnostics, and effective challenge.

Executive Decision Support

I translate complex analytical and operational evidence into concise narratives covering the issue, facts, risks, dependencies, options, customer and control implications, recommendations, and required decisions.

Operating Models and Governance

I connect requirements, methodology, population logic, code, validation evidence, execution artifacts, decision records, controls, and follow-through across independently accountable teams.


Portfolio Mission

This GitHub portfolio is a public proof layer for enterprise data strategy, governed analytics, applied data science, and decision-system architecture.

The repositories are not isolated notebooks or dashboard-only demonstrations. Each independently developed system pairs code with some combination of:

  • enterprise architecture and code-flow documentation
  • business and analytical requirements
  • controlled parameters and strategy configurations
  • synthetic, anonymized, or demonstration data
  • BRDs, validation summaries, and QA evidence
  • reconciliation and exception outputs
  • UAT scripts and acceptance checks
  • reason-code and decision-path evidence
  • run registries and archive tables
  • executive summaries and presentations
  • interactive Power BI reports connecting executive KPIs to application-level validation evidence
  • technical runbooks and operating guidance

The repository organization reflects the professional documentation and version-control discipline I used at Wells Fargo.

Enterprise Credit Decisioning Strategy Module 2 Architecture

Open the Module 2 enterprise architecture full size

A two-module decisioning environment with a PostgreSQL simulation core, SAS reconciliation evidence, and an interactive Power BI release-validation layer. The project demonstrates how generated application data, policy controls, strategy testing, account-level outcomes, validation evidence, and executive interpretation can operate together without exposing PII or proprietary credit policy.

The Module 2 architecture makes the full strategy chain visible—from the Module 1 source population through strategy controls, decision logic, final outcomes, archive persistence, matched comparison, QA, frontier analysis, and evidence acceptance.

Module 1 — Application and Risk Engine

Generates deterministic application populations with:

  • product type
  • score band
  • borrower profile
  • requested exposure
  • APR proxy
  • monthly payment
  • payment-to-income ratio
  • estimated-PD proxy
  • LGD
  • Expected Loss

Campaign scope:

  • 19 governed scenarios
  • 50,000 applications per scenario
  • 950,000 archived scenario rows
  • product-by-score risk surfaces
  • configurable scenario levers
  • Expected-Loss impact decomposition

Power BI Release-Validation Layer

I implemented the automated reporting and validation layer contemplated in the Module 1 roadmap using Power BI Desktop.

The report integrates final PostgreSQL-generated V1.0 and V2.0 application outputs with independent SAS reconciliation evidence. It preserves the complete 50,000-application denominator and reconciles:

  • 50,000 matched applications
  • 21,326 applications with one or more functional changes
  • 28,674 unaffected applications
  • 42.65% application change rate
  • 58,382 application-variable change records
  • 7 changed functional variables

The Power BI implementation demonstrates:

  • Power Query ingestion and controlled data typing
  • one-to-one V1.0-to-V2.0 release merging
  • row-level delta and change-flag calculations
  • relational semantic modeling
  • one-to-many relationship governance
  • centralized DAX measures
  • KPI and denominator validation
  • executive report design
  • interactive Application ID lookup
  • application-level V1.0-versus-V2.0 reconciliation
  • conditional formatting
  • dynamic DAX-based analyst interpretation

Module 2 — Credit Policy and Decision Strategy Engine

Consumes Module 1 outputs and applies configurable policy and treatment controls to simulate:

  • approvals
  • counteroffers
  • manual reviews
  • declines
  • approved exposure
  • approved Expected Loss
  • affordability and exposure constraints
  • selective and aggressive counteroffer paths

The repository includes:

  • business and analytical requirements
  • relational data model
  • configurable parameter tables
  • strategy definitions
  • reason-code logic
  • validation and QA scripts
  • matched comparison outputs
  • run registries
  • archive persistence
  • executive summaries
  • interactive Power BI release-validation reporting
  • application-level reconciliation and dynamic analyst interpretation
  • technical runbooks

Why the Project Matters

The simulator demonstrates:

  • governed credit-strategy architecture
  • pre-production decision testing
  • configurable policy and product controls
  • account-level reason codes
  • matched-population comparison
  • Expected Loss and affordability trade-offs
  • archive-backed evidence
  • challenger-strategy assessment
  • counteroffer governance
  • executive decision support
  • cross-platform lineage from PostgreSQL outputs and SAS controls to Power BI evidence
  • executive-to-application traceability through interactive release-impact analysis

It is not a dashboard-only demonstration. It is a complete decision-system environment with relational implementation, controlled parameters, generated samples, independent reconciliation, validation evidence, archived campaign results, and an interactive Power BI consumption layer connecting executive conclusions to application-level evidence.

Enterprise Survival Strategy Framework Architecture

Open the enterprise survival architecture full size

A governed Python time-to-event analytical system that separates descriptive persona discovery from Cox proportional hazards modeling and carries the work through validation, risk targeting, same-cohort scenario simulation, dependency reconstruction, stakeholder reporting, and immutable run evidence.

Validated Analytical Flow

Synthetic Time-to-Event Data
→ Input Contract Validation
→ K-Means Persona Discovery
→ Regularized CoxPH Model
→ Five-Fold Cross-Validation
→ Out-of-Fold Calibration
→ Proportional-Hazards Review
→ Population Risk Stratification
→ Top-Quartile Target Cohort
→ Control / Improvement / Stress Scenarios
→ Dependency-Safe Re-Scoring
→ Predicted Survival Comparison
→ Executive PPTX + Technical PDF
→ Run Registry and Acceptance Evidence

Validated Demonstration

  • 7,500 synthetic records
  • 2,964 observed events
  • 4,536 right-censored records
  • 12 governed CoxPH features
  • 0.827 five-fold mean concordance
  • 3 stable descriptive personas
  • 1,875 governed target-cohort records
  • 6 control, improvement, combined, and stress scenarios
  • PASS_WITH_REVIEW acceptance posture with documented PH sensitivity evidence

Same-Cohort Scenario Evidence

Same-Cohort Baseline and Scenario Survival

Open the same-cohort survival chart full size

The scenario framework holds the same target IDs constant, applies bounded assumptions, rebuilds interaction and squared terms, re-scores the cohort, and compares modeled partial hazard and survival movement.

The project demonstrates:

  • time-to-event modeling with right-censoring
  • K-Means lifecycle personas
  • regularized Cox proportional hazards
  • five-fold validation and out-of-fold calibration
  • model-derived risk tiers
  • neutral control and adverse stress testing
  • same-cohort sensitivity analysis
  • engineered-feature dependency controls
  • PH diagnostics and sensitivity review
  • automated executive and technical evidence
  • explicit non-causal and non-production boundaries

The objective is not merely to fit a survival model. It is to build a governed analytical framework in which the model, validation, scenario assumptions, evidence, and interpretation remain connected.


Professional Foundation

The portfolio architecture reflects disciplines developed across three highly regulated public and financial-sector environments.

Wells Fargo — Enterprise Data Strategy, Decision Systems, and Consumer Auto

Wells Fargo | 03/2018–04/2026

  • Executive Director – Senior Lead Analytics Consultant | 06/2022–04/2026
  • Vice President – Lead Analytics Consultant | 03/2018–06/2022

Promoted while serving as principal analytical architect for Consumer Auto programs exceeding $1B in exposure and customer impact.

Executive Engagement and Decision Architecture

  • Authored, reviewed, edited, and presented Decision Forum materials covering the issue, supporting facts, risks, dependencies, available options, customer and control implications, recommendations, and required decisions.
  • Coordinated input across leadership, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Technology, Credit Bureau Management, Execution, Independent Testing & Validation, Audit, and regulatory stakeholders.
  • Ensured approved decisions and changes were formally documented before control review and execution.
  • From summer 2024 onward, served as the standing Consumer Auto Finance representative in daily IT&V escalation meetings, coordinating evidence, ownership, resolution, and follow-through.

CPI Governance and Sustained Assurance

From 2018 through 2025, designed, operated, and governed critical CPI analytical and execution processes, including:

  • proof-of-insurance intake and quality assurance
  • Direct and Indirect Auto recalculation end-user computing tools
  • CPI coverage adjustments
  • customer financial redress
  • time-value-of-money loss-of-use relief
  • prior-payment netting
  • account-level decision-path flags
  • manual-review integration
  • credit-reporting redress
  • recurring 1099-INT and 1099-MISC tax reporting
  • weekly production and executive reporting
  • complaints, Audit, control, and regulatory support
  • annual EUCT documentation, validation, access, and approval requirements

Independent Audit found 100% alignment between retained proof-of-insurance evidence and the corresponding third-party vendor data reviewed.

Led CPI credit-reporting redress for approximately 850,000 accounts through approximately 200 external mass-maintenance submissions, with corresponding internal system-of-record updates and account/borrower-level before-and-after lineage across key Metro 2 fields.

Enterprise Data Strategy and Credit-Furnishing Governance

  • Created a governed archive of 500+ multi-line-of-business mass-maintenance submissions representing more than 100 million account-month furnishing actions.
  • Built a SAS-to-Teradata pipeline to map disparate schemas, standardize and validate line-of-business data, and publish governed datasets.
  • Established account-month SQL controls aligning remediation and furnishing history to prevent favorable-state overwrites.
  • Led UAT as a distinct validation workstream covering data mappings, decision rules, outputs, and exception handling.
  • Separately evaluated 20M+ historical Consumer Auto Finance accounts through the control framework. Most required no update; the evaluation isolated the smaller subset requiring targeted redress.
  • Successfully defended a unified correction that accelerated customer relief while preserving accountability reporting identifying whether remediation or furnishing activity caused each overwrite.
  • Designed account- and impact-month-specific re-furnishing logic that preserved favorable customer reporting and saved approximately $60,000 per submission.

Target Operating Model and Analytical Ownership

Led analytical workstreams across 15+ Consumer Auto remediations, including:

  • Tier 1 SCRA proactive application-of-benefits matters
  • COVID-deferral remediations
  • disaster relief
  • a major data-center outage
  • inaccurate payoff-date reporting
  • multiple credit-furnishing matters

Owned the analytical components of the Remediation Target Operating Model:

  • Data Analytical Approach
  • Population Identification Workbook
  • SAS/SQL code
  • population outputs
  • run procedures
  • validation evidence
  • Population Identification Review responses
  • Decision Forum analysis
  • specialized data and review dependencies

For SCRA work, reconstructed Direct Auto account lineage across multiple systems of record and account-recycling processes. Where evidence proved that apparent conflicts resulted from system migrations rather than actual account activity, resolved the discrepancy analytically. Where evidence remained insufficient, developed and escalated risk-mitigation options aligned with SCRA requirements.

Beyond the 15+ remediations led, served as an enterprise furnishing SME, peer reviewer, and mentor on 10+ additional credit-reporting remediations.

Reusable Standards and Analytics Enablement

Built or supported reusable Consumer Auto processes for:

  • governed Common Code
  • execution Standard Data Format transformation
  • Teradata-based Universal Data Layer archival delivery
  • tax-reporting standardization
  • business requirements and Job Aids
  • operating and run procedures
  • department-wide training
  • knowledge continuity after staff turnover
  • aged IT&V review resolution

Portfolio Philosophy

No Cold Handoffs

A system is not complete when the code runs or the output is produced.

A system is complete when the relevant stakeholders can understand:

  • what question was being answered
  • which data were used
  • how the logic operated
  • which assumptions and parameters mattered
  • how the output was tested
  • which controls were applied
  • what exceptions remain
  • what decision is required
  • how the result should be implemented
  • how ownership and follow-through will be maintained

That philosophy appears throughout the portfolio:

Data integrity before modeling
Lineage before inference
Validation before reliance
Strategy testing before implementation
Reason codes before unexplained outcomes
Reconciliation before closure
Executive interpretation before action
Documentation before handoff

The objective is not complexity for its own sake. It is analytical work that is transparent, reproducible, governable, and useful.

I also use generative AI as a controlled accelerator for synthesis, narrative development, presentation refinement, and risk-control ideation—while retaining source verification, human judgment, and accountability.


Data and Confidentiality Boundary

All public repositories use synthetic, anonymized, or demonstration data.

These projects do not expose:

  • customer or personally identifiable information
  • employer-owned code
  • production credit policy
  • proprietary remediation rules
  • confidential model inputs
  • regulated operational pipelines
  • internal systems or restricted documentation

The repositories are designed to demonstrate transferable methodology, enterprise architecture, validation discipline, governance, documentation quality, and executive communication in a public setting.
