Come hear SRP’s (Salt River Project) story at the upcoming DGIQ Conference in San Diego

Late last week I learned that I have been selected as a 2013 IBM Information Management Champion (in addition to my current role of being a “Social Media Influencer”). It is a high honor for me to represent such a great program and to join an esteemed group of peers. Each of us brings a unique perspective to the disciplines of Information Management, Analytics & Information Governance which we use to help extol the benefits of the InfoSphere portfolio to our clients and colleagues. I very much look forward to strongly participating in the program and will be speaking at a number of events in the coming months in my capacity as a Champion as well as working on a daily basis to help bring insights and capabilities to clients working with various elements of the InfoSphere portfolio. I promise to use my Blog to highlight interesting Case Studies and Anecdotes over the coming year. Stay Tuned!
