No, it's not a conventional skill set. I was raised on a family farm in Idaho with five younger brothers, and I had 14 people in my graduating high school class. Programmer, financial analyst, database administrator, storyteller, musician, and triathlete. If you're looking for someone to run the numbers and then tell the story, I'm your man. There's more to life than work, and I get my greatest satisfaction when I build something that makes it possible for the Finance and Accounting staff to go home on time. I thrive on tough challenges - that process that takes way too much manual intervention, getting the forecast done on time, or finishing a triathlon in a Missouri summer.
