I’ve spent nearly all of my 20 year career in data-focused roles. The bulk of my experience has been with the Microsoft SQL Server business intelligence stack over the last ten years. Writing SQL queries has been a staple throughout that time. I’ve worked with analysis and visualization tools including Tableau, SSRS, R, and, of course, Excel. Over the years I’ve known enough to be dangerous with ETL development and stored procedures. While my strengths are in relational databases, I’ve had some fun with the Hortonworks Hadoop implementation and some other NoSQL databases.
