Colin Michael
Business Analytics Manager in Francisville, Kentucky
For millions of years (inside joke) I've been a computer geek. I started programming at 16 on the early Apple ][+ and Atari 800 personal computers. At 19 I worked with mainframes for the U.S. Navy. Later I worked with direct data acquisition and presentation at the Maine Yankee nuke plant. As the Web grew up I became a Java programmer, then Internet application developer, then XSLT programmer, then PHP and SQL developer. Eventually I melded my data and programming skills into the deeply interesting field of business intelligence, which has led me to my current position as the Manager of a Business Analytics department in a Kentucky suburb of Cincinnati.
