An evangelist for data literacy, he's known as the data mensch for helping others make data-driven decisions. His passion for all things data has evolved from SQL and data warehousing to big data analytics and data visualization.

I want to thank the many people who have supported me throughout my career. My inspiration comes from my colleagues, with whom I have shared long hours spent solving complex problems and gaining some wisdom along the way (hopefully). Also, this would not have been possible without the support of my family's love and sacrifice. To my wife, Debra, my daughter, Rebecca, and my son, Seth – thank you! To my parents and extended family, thank you!
