Hi! You seem to have found yourself right here. No matter where you go there you are.
I’m an analytics leader with over a decade of experience of leading people and organizations to effectively leverage their data to make operational decisions. Early in my career I had the opportunity to work extensively with many portions of the military and see first hand how data can impact real world operations.
Because that’s what it’s all about. Data is just ore in the mine until it’s used to make a decision. If someone looks at a piece of data and makes no action from it is it worth it? What does the data do? How does it break the bonds of being a number on a screen to changing something, anything in the real space?
Through a decision. Normally by a person but sometimes a machine. Machines making decisions about data given to them by a machine.
I like helping create and grow teams and tools. If you’re interested in talking please reach out!
