I build systems that help operations scale.

I started in analytics and kept wanting to build what happens after the insight. At Afriex, a cross-border payments platform, that became Retool apps, AI workflows and lifecycle pipelines for Support, Treasury, Compliance and Operations.

Results at Afriex

The platform: 600,000+ active users, 50+ countries, $600M+ in annual payment volume.

  • $5M+in transaction volume recovered within 4 months by a customer win-back I led the analytics for.
  • 81,000+QA records captured in the first year of the Support app I built. The old spreadsheet held about 40,000 in three years.
  • 3+ hourssaved every day for the Treasury team by an AI system that finds the best FX rates and flags arbitrage.

Data Analyst, Automation & Internal Tools

Oct 2023 to present

Afriex, remote

Afriex is a B2C and B2B cross-border payments platform: fast, low-cost international transfers, virtual cards and multi-currency accounts for individuals, merchants and businesses.

  • Led the analytics behind a high-value customer win-back that helped recover $5M+ in transaction volume within 4 months, then turned the approach into a repeatable retention workflow.
  • Rebuilt a slow, chaotic Customer Support QA process as a Retool app with coaching analytics: 81,000+ records in year one and 5+ hours saved a week.
  • Deployed a production AI system for FX intelligence that saves Treasury 3+ hours a day, and ran it autonomously after testing against real trading outcomes.
  • Built lifecycle workflows on a Snowflake to Customer.io reverse ETL pipeline, powering feature-adoption campaigns and weekly activity summaries for B2B customers.

Data Analyst Intern

Apr 2023 to Oct 2023

Afriex, remote

Same company, first year. Started in SQL and grew into building.

  • Built an AML monitoring automation for Compliance: SQL and Postgres rules flag accounts over risk thresholds, surfaced in Retool with Slack alerts, replacing manual reviews.
  • Used SQL and Python to investigate production logs, audit payment flows and reconcile Stripe records.
  • Co-owned automation and tooling work across Operations, Compliance, Product, Engineering, Finance and Growth.
