About me

Data Governance, Data Quality and the business side of trusted data.

Data Governance is not only about data. It is about responsibility.

I write about Data Governance because I believe data problems are rarely just technical problems.

Behind every inconsistent report, unclear definition or repeated data quality issue, there is usually a deeper problem: missing ownership, weak control or a process that was never clearly defined.

My professional background connects finance, retail, reporting, data quality and governance. That mix shaped the way I think about data: not as something that belongs only to IT, but as a business asset that needs structure, responsibility and trust.

More reports do not create trust.
Clear ownership and control do.

Professional background

I have experience across financial services, alternative investments and retail, working with data processes, reporting structures, master data and governance controls.

Financial services

Experience in structured data environments where accuracy, consistency and trust in information are critical.

Retail and business data

Experience with operational and master data domains where data quality affects reporting, planning and analysis.

Governance thinking

A practical interest in ownership, definitions, validation rules and the connection between business processes and data control.

How I think about data

01. If no one owns the data, no one is truly responsible for it.

02. A report is only as reliable as the process behind it.

03. Data Quality is not only a technical topic — it is a business discipline.

04. Governance must be practical, visible and connected to real decisions.

05. The goal is not control for the sake of control — the goal is trust.
