PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
September 2012 - Present T-Mobile Bellevue, Washington
Enterprise Senior Data Architect/Data Modeler
> Teradata Data Architect in Agile Environment, creating data warehouse
dimensional Logical (LDM) and Physical (PDM) data models and Source to
Target Mapping (S2TM) for T-Mobile projects including Point of Sale
(POS), Commissions, Warranty, Personal Guarantor, Catalog Enhancement,

Source to Target Mapping; support for testing. Presented Dimensional
Modeling and Togaf/Bachman Enterprise Architecture Methodology.
June 2012 - August 2012 Illinois State University Normal, Illinois
Enterprise Data Architect/Data Modeler
> Developed a data architecture model for pilot program to rapidly for
modernizing the Illinois State University Enterprise Architecture to
include Student Social Networking (employment of Big Data concepts).
Used Togaf methodology, referencing the Zachman Framework with JAD
sessions to capture functional and data requirements in concert with
Six Sigma Team. Created Togaf artifacts for system goals, drivers,
services, functions, business models, use cases, process flows, data
models, data lifecycle, metadata, and system migration. Evaluated data
modeling tools and developed a Metadata solution for the Enterprise
data.
June 2011 - May 2012 Intel Folsom, California
Data Architect/Data Modeler
> On Fusion 3x Project building a Teradata, Agile data warehouse using
Doctor Ralph Kimball's methodology, served as a data architect/data
modeler linking data from SAP ECC sales orders, shipping and billing
to data from SAP SCM (Supply Chain) demand/supply planning for
business analysts. Used ER Studio Data Architect for logical and
physical data modeling and source to target mapping for ETL
development. Developed data quality method.
August 2009 - May 2011 Independent Artificial Intelligence Research and
Development
Project Manager/Architect/Research Analyst/Engineer
> Served as leader and focal point for research direction and
conceptualization
> Determined data structure of sensor integration, data schema/model of
Data Warehouse, and concept of structure for rule generation
> Provided research on mathematical concepts and previous algorithms for
sensor integration research, robotics and direction for mechanical
development
> Environment - Neural Net Software, SQL Server 2008 SSIS, SSAS, SSRS,
Erwin, Visual Studio, Hardware (Sensors, and Actuators/Servos)
Proof of Concept - Developed methodology for handling Big Data (volume,
velocity, and variety) using an Artificial Intelligence Architecture to
handle data from multiple sensors in a Neural Network to provide
"snapshots" of conditions for a Data Warehouse. This architecture would
derive "If/Then Rules" of Intelligence for the environment for a
Fuzzy/Expert System to drive Servos for movement of a tool. This would
provide "knowledge" for the system. Exceptions in the learned environment
would require new "knowledge" which the system would then adapt to with new
rules. The system would "learn." When one considers a group of sensors for
pressure, temperature, optics and optical ranges, interacting with multiple
conditions, and providing continuous data; one can begin to appreciate the
use of an architecture that simplifies the utility of the data for
adaptation to the dynamic environment.
