I am a problem solver. Specifically, a data problem solver. I have been repeatedly been given opportunity to tackle the "gnarly", ugly, impossible projects that involve acquiring, manipulating, transmitting, reformatting, translating and effectively displaying data. This has typically involved synchronizing data across disparate applications, or creating avenues for timely, secure and reliable communication of data between locations.
My goal is to become still better at this! I have found that I enjoy the challenge and the fact that I keep getting these challenges must mean that those I've worked with and for think I'm doing a good job at coming up with workable solutions!
