I'm a hands-on, client-facing, technical resource with extraordinary communication skills. By trade, I'm a manager in the business intelligence and data analytics practice for a large firm. I've been in consulting for almost 5 years now, and have worked with countless big-name clients, across nearly every industry. During my free time, I'm either learning new technical skills working on side projects that I find interesting, or I'm passing my knowledge on to the next generation. If you're wondering why I'm here, I simply feel like I have a natural aptitude for solving complex problems and I'm always looking for a new challenge. With that said, I have a very broad range of technical skills. Everything from programming in several languages, linux administration, SQL development, custom application development, big data, data integration, ETL development, data warehousing, database development/administration, all the way to anything you can possibly fathom in excel (and then some)!
