Personal Sabbatical

In pursuit of a personal goal, I spent time with my wife experiencing cultures and lifestyles outside of the United States.  After touring 28 countries across Europe, Asia, and Oceania, we gained new perspectives on how closely connected the global community is and redefined priorities in living a fulfilling life.  

I maintained a travel blog to capture our thoughts while traveling.  I also consulted with data analytics for U.S. clients during my travels.

Delivering unfair data advantages for the mid-market with ‘Data Analytics as a Service’– trusted insights, automation, and ongoing support that grows with you

Organizations are drowning in data but struggle to take advantage of actionable insights and prescriptive decisions.  

Companies instead have internal staff spend untold hours manually copying data across spreadsheets, shared drives, and email inboxes.  Any attempt to create insights with untrusted data is seen as a burden and a waste of time.

But if you don’t harness the power of data in your digital transformation, 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒑𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍.  

In 2022, 87% of surveyed executives stated that ‘data-driven decision-making’ is one of their extremely or somewhat important organizational priorities to thrive in 2023.

"With DataDrive, we've been able to provide our customers with custom data-driven dashboards to monitor the success of their campaigns in a way we had been trying to unlock for years."
- Ashley Steckler, Lawyerist

”Analytics allows us to take action and ask 'why' vs. doing the same things we've always done - just because we think it works. The DataDrive team provides that clarity for us."
- Reed Daniels, Red’s Savoy Pizza

“We factually prove to our own clients that we deliver results and achieve ROI on pricing and revenue management engagements with DataDrive's help."
- Brad Beakley, Hospitio

Business leaders want their organizations to be more data-driven.

However, investing in data talent and technology is cost-prohibitive.  Having your team actually access, interpret, and act on data-driven insights requires continued care and attention.

Building a data capability is a long, expensive, and risky initiative. 

𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐃𝐎 𝐈 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒

With over a decade of analytics consulting, I've implemented and trained users on the modern data stack for over 150 organizations.

I've seen the pitfalls, struggles, and poor investments. But there is an easier way.

DataDrive delivers data capabilities to scale with fast-growing organizations - without the hassle of hiring a team, managing infrastructure, and negotiating with 10+ software vendors.  

And it's cheaper than a data engineer's salary!
