Summary

Do you have a problem related to EDI? There's a good chance I can help you solve it!

From a young age, I've adopted a methodical and analytical approach to problem-solving. Over the last five years, I've learned the ins and outs of electronic data interchange (EDI) processes, standards, and tools, while also supporting colleagues, stakeholders, and clients and leading training sessions.

I'm very curious and love learning. Since I know it improves my skills and myself, I'm not afraid to put in the hours of practice and hard work to keep getting better. You also benefit from my growth because I'm passionate about helping others become the best version of themselves.

I was born in the late eighties and still have a huge passion for classic cars, vintage computers, and game consoles from that era. At the same time, I'm generally enthusiastic about technology. I'm also a strong advocate for daily challenges, which shows in my routines for physical and mental fitness.
