My specialties include database design, software design standards, metadata management, data governance/stewardship, Master Data Management, and data lineage across system representations. I have a broad background that includes full lifecycle implementations in manufacturing, commercial insurance, customer relationship management, and health care systems.I am a proven expert at Conceptual, Logical, and Physical modeling of RDBMS and dimensional databases across multiple major database design tools. I also have significant experience with SQL development on Azure, Databricks, and Oracle platforms, and considerable exposure to Data Vault warehousing and NoSQL technologies. I insist on documenting and enforcing thorough, readable, and practical design standards. I cultivate strong working relationships with business sponsors and analysts. Finally, colleagues recognize my skills as an outstanding trainer, mentor, and presenter of technical topics to non-technical audiences.Outside of my full-time work, I have also used my knowledge to help educate college students on database design fundamentals. I am also heavily involved in activities that assist the local schools and community to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
