I am a Cloud Architect focused on creatively connecting leadership with data. Driving big picture conversations about process and goals, I drill down to the right questions and provide technical solutions to ill-defined problems.I believe the following attributes have been key to my success:--I am endlessly curious.--I would rather work hard to accomplish something difficult than accomplish something with ease that anyone could have done.--I can communicate effectively with people from very diverse backgrounds and under the most stressful circumstances. --I am comfortable providing my perspective to senior leaders.--I bring a great deal of energy and experience to the project, always with a positive attitude and a touch of humor.--I don’t emotionally commit to my solutions. This allows me to be open to criticism from people with different viewpoints, resulting in personal growth and a better solution.--I think all the way through the problem and then all the way through the solution.--I’m not happy with less than amazing; I’m here to win.Systems Experience: Everything MS and Azure - SQL Database, Parallel Data Warehouse, Azure Data Factory, Azure Functions (C# mostly), Logic Apps. DataLake Analytics, Scala/Spark/Databricks (a lot). Also, tons of R, but people rarely ask about it.
