I am a SQL Server Developer working in the UK. Over the years I have worked for a broad selection of clients, in both the public and private sectors, in the UK and abroad (Europe, Africa, Asia).
I started out developing in COBOL for a financials software company. From there I moved into VB6 development, then .NET arrived and I migrated to C#.NET, which is where I am currently.
In parallel I was involved in reporting from the early days, prior to BI or CPM being buzzwords. I did a lot of work with Cognos products, then moved back to SQL Server (SSAS, SSRS) as their products started to catch up with the market.
Nowadays I tend to get involved in database design/ development, data warehousing/ reporting, and large data migration projects.
