Padel League PH (www.padelph.org)

I was one of the earliest adopters of padel in the PH and we needed more people to play with. One match after another and now we run the league.

What Five Years Experience Working in the Philippine Data Industry Looks Like

A bit about me

Your math and stats guy turned coder and data nerd.

I'm a systems thinker who spent years working end-to-end with data and how it flows from raw information to actionable insights. I care about building things that are genuinely useful — not just technically impressive.

Outside of work, I'm deep into fitness, I drink at least two milk teas everyday, and i'm super active in our local padel community. I track a lot of personal data out of curiosity, and live with our rescued cats. Estoy tambien aprendiendo Español poco a poco.

Based in the Philippines · Currently working full-time for Tala Financing Inc.

Ask a question, say hi, or leave a thought — I read everything.
