SQL (Advanced) – Data querying, joins, aggregations, performance tunin
Dynamic aviation professional with 5+ years of experience in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering, Maintenance Program Management, Market Research, and Aviation Sales. Currently serving as Manager of Maintenance Programs at Vista America, I specialize in optimizing maintenance strategies to enhance efficiency, compliance, and cost-effectiveness. I hold a Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) along with a Master’s in Business Analytics and a Master’s in Aviation and Aerospace, equipping me with a strong technical foundation and data-driven approach to aircraft maintenance management.
Proficient in SQL, Python, R programming, Tableau, Power BI, and Machine Learning, I leverage data analytics, predictive modeling, and reliability studies to improve aircraft performance, optimize maintenance intervals, and reduce operational costs. My expertise includes aircraft configuration management, component failure analysis, and maintenance forecasting, enabling proactive decision-making to minimize downtime.
I specialize in ensuring compliance with Airworthiness Directives (ADs), Service Bulletins (SBs), and fleet maintenance requirements by analyzing manufacturer recommendations, regulatory mandates, and performance data. I work extensively on aircraft configurations, ensuring accurate TRAX Panel Master updates, standardizing maintenance tasks, and auditing compliance records.
A key focus of my role is identifying high discrepancy parts that contribute to AOGs, scheduled delays, and unscheduled maintenance events. I conduct reliability studies through machine learning models and advanced analytics to pinpoint recurring component failures and optimize maintenance planning. I collaborate closely with Maintenance Planning & Control Teams for seamless scheduling and execution while coordinating with the Procurement Team to optimize part availability and reduce supply chain disruptions. I help extend maintenance intervals by implementing data-driven escalation strategies while ensuring fleet safety, reliability, and cost optimization.
I am passionate about leveraging analytics, machine learning, and regulatory expertise to drive efficiency, reduce downtime, and enhance aircraft reliability.
