I am an independent consultant with the title of Data Warehouse/Business Intelligence/MDM architect and developer. I have over 25 years of IT experience. I started my career as a software developer, and then was a DBA for 12 years, and for the last six years I have been working extensively with Business Intelligence using the SQL Server BI stack (SSAS, SSRS, and SSIS). I have been at times a permanent employee, consultant, contractor, and owner of my own business. All these experiences along with continuous learning have helped me to develop many successful data warehouse and BI projects. I am a noted speaker and blogger.
I have earned the MSCE: SQL Server 2012 Business Intelligence, MSCE: SQL Server 2012 Data Platform, MCITP: SQL Server 2008 Business Intelligence Developer, MCITP: SQL Server 2008 Database Administrator, and MCITP: SQL Server 2008 Database Developer (view my MCP Certifications), and have a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Engineering.
