Commercial Analytics & Applied AI Leader

Commercial analytics leadership for teams that need trusted revenue, pricing, margin, and pipeline decisions. Senior Data Analyst EMEA at Medline, building the decision systems underneath the dashboard.

I work where commercial numbers lose credibility: in forecast calls with weak stage discipline, in pricing files without control logic, in margin narratives distorted by FX, rebates, or attribution noise, and in CRM data nobody fully trusts. Based near Stuttgart, I rebuild the governance, review cadence, and analytical logic that let commercial and executive leaders act on revenue, margin, pricing, and pipeline signals with less noise and more control.

The differentiator is operator range. I have been writing machine learning in TensorFlow for 10+ years while also owning sales, forecast, margin, and execution problems in the real business. That combination is what makes me effective in consulting work and in Head or Director-level analytics mandates.

Tools Chosen To Support Control, Governance, And Commercial Judgment

The technology comes after the commercial problem is clear. This stack exists to make messy financial and commercial data more reliable, more auditable, and more usable inside live decision workflows with owners, review logic, and accountability. It is build depth, not course-level familiarity.

Built around reality

Forecasts, pricing, margin, CRM, and executive reporting each need different controls. The stack reflects that.

Audit before automation

I favor tools that support traceability, validation, and safe rollout rather than black-box novelty.

Operator bias

Every choice is shaped by what leaders actually need to trust and act on each week.
