As a Business Intelligence and DW expert, I have been leading and delivering end-to-end data-focused solutions for over 20 years, using many leading BI tools including the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence Platform. I have a well-earned understanding of how successful BI/DW solutions are dependent on a strong foundation; consisting of the right mix of data standards, flexible data design, efficient ETL, proven project frameworks, and well-designed development teams.In addition, I worked full-time as a Data Warehouse Architect, where I applied my MicroStrategy expertise to design and implement large-scale, complex, and innovative BI initiatives for various clients across different industries, such as healthcare, retail, pharmaceutical, hospitality, and telecommunications. I have been responsible for successful deployments at several clients, including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Centene, VHA, McDonald's, Sanofi Pasteur, Wyeth, Darden Restaurants, 1010Data, Charter Communications, and Marketing Direct Inc. My mission is to help clients get it right the first time and achieve their data-driven goals.
