Welcome to The Cube, Tom! My lone excursion to PA led me to the Primanti Bros, and while it wasn't on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, it was on Man vs. Food, so I'll take some solace in that!
I have my Masters Degree in Health Services Administration and have been in the Healthcare Industry for over 10 years. I have a unique background in website content creation, healthcare, and IT.
In my spare time, I'm networking, running the Buffalo BI Workgroup, or spending time with my family.

I certainly wouldn't mind a vacation to Melbourne Beach either!

Hey everyone! I'm new to Dundas (going through our consultant on site training this week). Very excited to start using the product to build dashboards for our clients.
And we're very excited to see what you're able to create! Welcome to Dundas and to The Cube, Taylor.

Welcome to The Cube, Amelia! We're thrilled that you're starting your career with Dundas!
Hi,
I've done my Masters in Computer Application and altough I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to DundasBI, I hope to change that in the coming few months so that I can actively be more comfortable and knowledgeable in building dashboards in a jiffy.
In my off time, I like to keep up to date on the latest on-goings about Football and I'm currently watching the World Cup (disappointed the Germans are eliminated, but hey they deserved it) happening in Russia.
Welcome to The Cube, Chris! We're very excited to have you in our community. Hopefully you're able to find the right resources here to help build successful dashbaords!
