This portfolio contains examples of work done in business intelligence technologies including SQL programming, data modeling, SSIS, SSAS, MDX, SSRS, and SharePoint/Excel Services. Three projects are summarized: 1. An SSIS project to import data from various sources into a SQL Server database for a construction company, with packages to load, validate, and maintain data. 2. An SSAS project building a cube for analyzing customer invoices, with dimensions, attributes, hierarchies, and MDX queries. 3. A final group project delivering a BI solution for an education company with a staging database, OLAP cube, reports on Excel, SSRS and a SharePoint dashboard.
