I have been in love with technology since the first time I saw computer code for the TRS-80 over 30 years ago. Unfortunately, I was just about to start my career as a pharmacist! After learning Visual Basic, C++, and HTML around 1995, I decided to leave my original profession and do whatever I needed to do to work with computers. Thanks to Y2K, programming jobs were plentiful, and I managed to leave pharmacy and have never looked back. Eventually I became a database administrator and started speaking and writing. In 2005, I was asked to help with a book, Professional SQL Server 2005 Integration Services. My life has been crazy and exciting since then! I began working for one of my favorite companies, Redgate Software, in 2017. I'm the editor of Simple-Talk (https://www.red-gate.com/simple-talk/), the online technical journal. There you will find articles about the Microsoft Data Platform, .NET, Cloud Computing, and more.
