About

With a vast expertise in Oracle Database, I consider myself as a top-notch database administrator with a varied work experience in Oracle engineered appliances, custom configured clusters, migrating databases to the cloud. Being an administrator, I have acquired precise performance tuning capabilities of databases of several applications. As an active participant in handling several critical calls with the customers, I have developed a well-established path to identify/solve/fix issues related to Oracle database and application functionalities. Over the years from now, I aim to be an Oracle technical asset not only to the application team, but also to the company where I work.
