Kurt has been living and breathing Analytics & Reporting, Business Intelligence, and Data Integration for over 40 years -- the last 23 years of which he has enjoyed working in the Oracle EPM/BI space. Hailing from both corporate and consulting worlds, it has allowed him to hold diverse positions in various industries including food & restaurant, retail, insurance, oil & gas, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing.
As a Sr. Solutions Architect, he specializes in designing, delivering, and supporting solutions for both on-premise and cloud-based projects utilizing Hyperion EPM, Oracle Essbase, and Oracle Analytics. Kurt has also delivered instructor-led Oracle product training for Oracle University.
A well-received speaker, Kurt has presented at multiple Kscope conferences and has presented at North Central Oracle Applications User Group (NCOAUG) Training Days, Michigan Oracle Users Summit (MOUS), and Northeast Joint Oracle User Group Meeting (NEOAUG). Kurt is a member of ODTUG where he sits on the Board of Directors serving as their Treasurer, is the liaison to the ODTUG EPM Community, was an EPM Content Co-Chair for Kscope23, and volunteers in various committees and capacities for Kscope.
When he doesn't have his head in "the Cloud", he enjoys a little wind therapy, riding his Harley around Southeastern Texas.
