I am an attorney-at -law, consultant and writer who loves sharing my research and insights with others.
My position as a legal consultant for a data analytics and data mining company has driven me to learn more about technology, data privacy and Big Data in ways that are easy to understand given my non technical background.
I found that there weren't nearly enough non technical explanations of technology and Big Data subject areas and hope to do my part to redress this deficiency. As a result the primary target audience of my courses are not 'techies' but rather persons who wish to enhance their technology or Big Data knowledge to either fulfill their non technical roles and responsibilities in their organization or for their own personal development.
