Overview
I build the systems institutions make decisions with — the data, the analysis, and increasingly the AI underneath them. Give me a ledger, a dataset or a market and I find what it is actually saying; then I turn that into a model, a report, or a product a board can act on. Numbers first, always: they are the one language every business speaks.
Eight years, four countries, 15+ industries — audit at Deloitte, enterprise BI in Sweden serving 40 controllers, PropTech and finance in Dubai, and three business lines today as Chief Data Officer at Naviora Group. Different sectors, one throughline: finding the causal thread in complexity and making it decision-ready. One method throughout: complexity in, clarity out.
What I Do at Institutional Level
Six things I do at institutional standard — every one shipped, not theory.
Data Rooms & Due Diligence
Investment-grade data rooms end-to-end — ProForma, sensitivity, exit & liquidity, price validation. Built so a committee can decide and an auditor can trace every number.
Deep Research on Anything
I take a company, market, person, technology or scientific question to institutional depth — structured, evidenced, decision-ready. The same rigour a fund applies to a deal, applied to any subject.
AI Agents & Products
I design and build AI research agents — councils of specialists that investigate a field and return institutional-grade output — and turn that intelligence into working products.
Financial Modelling & Reporting
Three-statement models, cash-flow forecasting, plan-vs-actual, unit economics — plus the reporting infrastructure owners and boards actually use.
BI & Analytics Platforms
Production Power BI across 15+ industries — GL-to-invoice drill-downs, row-level security, daily-refresh intelligence used by hundreds of people.
Zero to Running System
Requirements to production, personally. neifcapital.com is the proof: an institutional investment OS shipped end-to-end by one person.

Business Intelligence Portfolio
zoomFood Production
Built for a group managing four food-production factories: a shareholder app showing Revenue, Cost, Gross Profit and margins with full production cost — raw materials, salaries, utilities, marketing. Products needing price adjustment or cost reduction are flagged in red; deeper sections give factory directors cost drill-downs, margin-enhancement scenarios (1–20% price moves), invoice detail, and key product and customer analysis.

zoomBusiness Process Management
Eleven business processes measured against 30-day targets — incidents and reaction, requests and completion, customer experience, change speed. Colour-coded thresholds (below 100% / 80%); each process gets its own report with reaction speed, resolution time, rolled-back changes, overdue cases, and the people involved — so the BPM team catches issues per country the moment they appear.

Speaking & Teaching
Lecture at the University of Latvia Innovation & Acceleration Center — pre-incubation program in cooperation with Latvenergo and Sadales Tīkls. How entrepreneurs turn ideas into sustainable businesses: market validation and customer research, go-to-market and customer acquisition, financial modelling and unit economics, AI as a tool for faster decision-making, and data-driven risk management.
A recurring theme in my talks: how deep research and AI compress the distance between a question and a decision — how to investigate any field rigorously, and turn the findings into products, models and agents rather than slides.
Recommendations
Words from the people I have worked with — offered unprompted, kept with gratitude.
Beyond the Work
The same pattern runs through all of it: go where it is uncomfortable, learn the system from the inside, find the causal thread — whether that is a balance sheet, a data pipeline, a wreck forty metres down, or a street in a city where nobody knows your name.
