ABOUT
MY STORY
Early in my software career, I became fascinated with data aggregation and search. I noticed recurring challenges every time I adopted Elasticsearch to build search features:
​
-
Understanding the differences between a search engine and other data stores
-
Learning the inner workings of Elasticsearch while trying to deliver search solutions to your users
-
Improving search relevance without a strategy or automation
​
My experiences led me to start Inventa Consulting, focusing on search with Elasticsearch. Since then, I have developed strategies, tools, and tactics to help companies accelerate their search journey while reducing implementation risk.

MY PILLARS
EXPERTISE FOCUSED
Although learning new technologies and use cases is important, true expertise comes from focusing on a niche and continually improving. By solely utilizing Elasticsearch for search, I can provide more experienced and practiced assistance.
GOAL ORIENTED
I prioritize the desired outcomes of my clients. Deliverables can change and effort can fluctuate, but the end goals remain the same.
COLLABORATIVE
While I emphasize strategies, tactics, and tools for my clients, I recognize that not all solutions are the same. Collaborating and working as partners can lead to even better outcomes.
