Consultant @ Purple Frog Systems
Wolverhampton, United Kingdom
For more than a decade. I've been involved in the fascinating world of data! From SQL Server and SSIS, to Azure Data Factory, Synapse, Power BI, and more recently, Fabric. Day-to-day I'm a senior member of the data engineering team at Purple Frog Systems and in my spare time I run the Microsoft Data Platform Birmingham user group as well as my own blog.Running a user group allows me to connect with amazing folks and either teach or learn from like-minded people. I've had the privilege of speaking at various user groups and conferences, giving back to the community wherever I can.
There's more to me than just data! I'm also the creator of the Data Luthier blog, where I talk all things tech and give a sneak peek into my other passion: guitars! Yup, I'm a total guitar geek – from playing to collecting, fixing, and even crafting my instruments.
