WWDVC 2022 is almost here – Are you ready to “up” your Data Vault game?

Vermont is beautiful in May!

As the world is coming out of its pandemic induced isolation, its time we all got back to meetin’ and greetin’ our colleagues and peers in person. One of the things the last two years has taught us it that humans are social animals. We like being around other humans and some variety is good for our mental and emotional health (not that we don’t all love the families that we have been locked up with during this time). Not only that, but we learn and communicate better face to face. So much of our communication is nonverbal and just can’t be seen behind a mask, or a Zoom square.

Are you ready to get back out there, network with your peers, meet some Data Vault Masters, and work on your professional development around Data Vault? If you are then it is time to secure your seat at the 2022 World Wide Data Vault Consortium (WWDVC). As in past years, it will be held near the end of May at the lovely, and family friendly, Stoweflake Lodge in Stowe, Vermont.

Check out all the details, including HOLs, keynotes, and session topics, about WWDVC 2022 in this post by Cindi at DataRebels – WWDVC 2022 is almost here

If you are already planning to go, you can just register here.

Keep on modeling!

Snowflake Resources from The Data Warrior

Since you are on this blog, I assume that means you are “following” me in that techie, non-stalker sort of way. 😉

That being the case you are aware of my tenure for the last 5+ years at the hottest data-focused software company in the world – Snowflake. And you know I have produced a lot of content (really – A LOT!). Everything from blogs to ebooks to videos to podcasts – in addition to my usual array of industry and Snowflake sponsored webinars and talks.

But if, like me, you have consumed so much content in the last year or so, you have probably lost track of some of it, right?

Well if you are trying to find something you saw me do (or tweet about doing) but just can’t remember what it was (or when or where) and you want to find it but don’t want to sift through the hundreds of Google search results or the thousands of social media posts I have done, look no further!

I decided to make it easier for you (and me frankly) by putting a pretty comprehensive list together on a permanent page here on my site.

I broke it up into videos/Podcasts, Thought Leader articles, ebooks, and blogs and have included links to all of these so you can quickly get to the content you need when you need it.

So check it out and bookmark the page now, before you forget or lose track of this post too. 🙂

You’re welcome.
