What I Build

From data architecture to decisions leaders can act on.

Six delivery lanes: integrate source systems, standardize metrics, automate workflows, and turn trusted data into business outcomes.

Enterprise Data Integration

Connects fragmented source systems into governed data flows that improve reliability, visibility, and operational decision-making.

BI & Decision Intelligence

Transforms scattered reporting into executive-ready dashboards, shared metrics, and insight experiences for faster management decisions.

Data Architecture & Analytics Engineering

Designs data models, pipelines, and semantic layers that make analytics scalable, maintainable, and trusted across domains.

AI Workflow Automation

Applies LLM-assisted workflows, APIs, and orchestration to reduce repetitive analytical work while preserving human review.

Executive Reporting & KPI Standardization

Clarifies business definitions and reporting cadence so leaders can compare performance consistently across teams and regions.

Delivery Leadership

Guides cross-functional delivery from architecture through adoption, balancing technical quality with measurable business outcomes.

Selected Work

Representative work across integration, intelligence modernization, and AI-enabled business workflows.

SAMI — iSAMS Assistant

Designed and built a retrieval-augmented AI assistant that answers "how do I…?" questions about iSAMS school management software, grounded in a curated knowledge base rather than general model knowledge. Shipped end to end as a production system with streaming chat, an admin console, and a feedback loop that turns approved answers back into knowledge-base improvements.

17in-depth iSAMS guides in the knowledge base
6,400+embedded vectors backing retrieval
218automated tests across backend and frontend

05

LangThang AI — Tour Advisory Chatbot

Built a personalised tour-advisory chatbot for the Vietnamese market that holds context across a conversation instead of treating each message as a fresh search. Conversation state drives hard SQL filtering before vector search, and a controlled closing flow hands a qualified lead to human sales rather than pretending to complete a booking.
