on february 24, 2019, two-weeks alcohol free and at my bottom, i made a very serious and personal decision to live differently and have not looked back. but when i could not drink my frustrations away, i realized how chaotic my life had become. i made some bad choices. i tolerated things i shouldn't have accepted. i sat around and nodded my head when i disagreed. i started guiding my actions by the mantra of "humanity, othes, yourself," based upon a sunday school lesson my daughter had years ago.
as i started prioritizing my choices and decisions differently, i realized who i am is best served by having healthy outlets for that energy, using skills i have and love. just the start - i have plans for 2023 and 2024!
eclectic, eccentric, and passionate. determined & analytical. i love a good challenge or puzzle. my mother will tell you stories about how i disassembled household items before i could walk. creative, not artistic. who i am as a consultant is rooted in who i am as a person, so i encourage you to get to know me as well as you want.
plateau marketing has provided data procurement, enhancement, modeling, analysis, migration, integration, reporting, dashboarding, and SQL dba services since april 2003. let me bottom line it for you: typically, my clients want to see or work with data from multiple systems in one place, or otherwise smash it together, and just can not find a way to get it done properly. accounting, crm, erm, and all the acronyms. i am a data guy, a sql guy. gimme your problem.
est. Feb 23, 2023 as an Ohio Domestic Non-Profit and submitted app for tax-exempt status as a 501(a) organization (NTEE code K02). jc's network is very personal to me. the goals are simple: anyone with a phone should be able to help themselves or someone else find food, shelter, or other basic human services, provided by non-profit & faith-based organization. the reason: because i couldn't help a guy find a place to stay in october 2019. you can read about that here. how? if you operate a pantry, shelter, free store, etc., you simply go to jc's network and register and maintain your own listing. but wait, there's more! the ministry operators have a whole set of ministry management tools to manage their volunteers and co-manage ministries they support with other organizations. it is a true network of people helping people, based on what i've been doing commercially for 30-years.
here is the thing with data: if you can get to it, you can do whatever you want with it. i have built a "framework" that can be dropped into any SQL system then customized by a clients team, directed by me or a handful of other consultants i work with, to build a custom web-based system that pulls together whatever you want. it's a templated solution that we customize in 3 to 12 weeks at fixed prices ranging from $3,000 to $30,000, designed to fit for the problems and software found in the 50-250 employee environtments. you own it and keep doing what you want with it. instead of me doing the one-off project at plateau marketing, your one-off problem will fit into one of my twisted solutions.
