Sean Burke

Sean has been working with databases for over 15 years, and has developed many custom solutions for dozens of high profile companies. While he thoroughly enjoys working with the latest and greatest SQL Server version, he still has a strange affinity for early DOS based database products like R:Base. As an intermediate VB programmer, he is an staunch advocate for understanding the fundamentals of the database platform upon which your application relies for its data.

He is currently the Director of Data Management for Hancock Information Group in Longwood, FL, and is passively pursuing MCDBA certification.
