Over the years in my professional life, I have strived to find a more optimal solution to the challenges presented to me. I will never contend I am a leading authority or the suggestions I present are the only way to tackle an issue. I am sharing the suggestions in efforts to make things easier on others; and possibly remind myself how to attack a problem.
In the portfolio I have suggestions on issues with SQL, Python, R, and now some WebGL too. I am always open to hearing how others would approach a problem and trying to find a more optimal solution.
If you have any comments or suggestions feel free to leave a comment or contact me via email.
