About

Hi, I'm Saint De La Rosa.

Founder of Pony Alto

Pony Alto is a solo practice built on a simple observation: the data tools and infrastructure that help large companies make better decisions are just as valuable for smaller ones, but most data consultancies are set up to serve enterprises, not growing businesses.

I started Pony Alto to change that. My background is in analytics, data transformation, and business intelligence, the layer between raw data and real decisions. I work with small and mid-size businesses to build data infrastructure that's right-sized, practical, and actually gets used.

I work remotely with clients across New York City and the Northeast, using modern tools like dbt, BigQuery, Looker Studio, Metabase, and Power BI to build lean, reliable data stacks that grow with your business.

How I Work

A few things that matter to how I work.

You own it.

Every engagement ends with a documented handoff. You get everything: the code, the documentation, the context. No lock-in, no dependency on me to keep the lights on.

Practical over perfect.

The right architecture is the one that fits your business now and can grow with you. I build what you need, not what looks impressive in a pitch deck.

Plain language.

Data work has a lot of jargon. I communicate in plain language: with you, in documentation, and in the reports your team reads. If it's not clear, it's not useful.

Right-sized scope.

I scope engagements carefully and don't oversell. If the Data Audit is enough to get you unstuck, that's what I'll recommend, not a full stack build you don't need yet.
