Preston Park’s Summary

In addition to studying law, I am a Programming/Applications Supervisor at UT Southwestern Medical Center. I primarily work with the Data Warehouse team on the UT Southwestern Business Intelligence Portal -- an intranet site that uses SharePoint, PerformancePoint, ProClarity, and other tools to deliver information that executives, department heads, and physicians can use to manage and evaluate their business. I also helped develop the new UTSouthwestern.org site; including: search code, database content management tools, and other database related work.

Finally, I am the lead developer for Comp-TMAP: the Computerized Texas Medication Algorithm Project: a decision support system for psychiatrists.
