It is no secret, organizations around the world are looking to become more digitally and data driven. The question then becomes: how?
To close the data skills gap and establish a data-centric culture, we need to look at the upskilling and respelling of individuals and workforces. Through education and training, organizations can create a culture where everyone has the skills and is encouraged to be curious about data.
As the Head of Data and Design/Management Skills, I help individuals and organizations realize their potential through the proper learning and strategy..
I lead Pluralsight’s data and design/management across our various channels. Pluralsight is the premier technology skills learning platform. This program is designed to help people learn and improve their data capabilities and more, gain an understanding of how to effectively use these skills and help prepare them to work with the large amounts of data found in modern organisations.
Before the transition to Pluralsight, I led and developed the world's first and premier data literacy program at Qlik. While at Qlik, I won numerous awards, both internal (President's Award) and external. Before my time at Qlik, I was involved in the development of the Business Intelligence group for the United States Consumer Card group at American Express. For my involvement that led to the creation of strategic reports, curriculum and training for this program, I was awarded the President's Club Award in 2017.
I’m passionate about bringing the human touch to a world of numbers. I get the greatest feeling of satisfaction when I can help people see and understand the power that data and analytics can bring to them -- in their careers, their businesses or in their personal lives.
When not working with helping our customers upskill their organizations’ capabilities, I can be found with my family or trail running the mountains of Utah.
