I love golf, playing volleyball, and gardening
What is on your bucket list?
I would love to travel to Germany for Octoberfest.
What is your hidden talent?
We have a large garden and I can and pickle the excess produce. We have a great canned salsa recipe.
Do you have any phobias?
I am scared to death of heights and my three sons are avid rock climbers. It doesn’t make any sense.
Tell us why you fell in love with data.
I feel a great sense of satisfaction when I am able to show a customer insights I was able to glean about their company from their data. It is very gratifying when the light bulb goes off in a customer’s head and they become excited about the intelligence hidden in their data.
