I came to the industry at the end of that times when the computer program executes as it was written. I saw a quite big machines, occupied more than 100 square meters for its central processor, but I started my professional activity as a programmer on IBM PC clones. There were different CPU architectures (68k, PowerPC, 386/486, SPARC...) when I began, but Intel defeated them all with Pentium CPU (marketing) family.
I saw the knowledge and technology fragmentation. I saw many technologies started, developed and retired. However, I have not seen many things yet.
I have some experience, but my experience is not perfectly comprehensive. I still have many things to learn and I still cannot make a poker face when I find out some aspects about how the things were designed and works. My experience does not make me an absolute expert in some areas, because these areas are changing. I know some things, but I also understand that some things I know could be useless for nowadays.

essentialSQL

Easy Computer Academy, LLC

Hello my name is Kris. I’m here because I am passionate about helping non-techie people to overcome their fear of learning SQL.

I know what it is like to not know where to start or whether the time spent learning is worth the effort. That is why I am here to help you to:
- Get started in an easy to follow step-by-step manner.
- Use your time wisely so you focus on what is important to learn to get the most value from your time.
- Answer your questions. Really! Just post a comment and I’ll respond. I’m here to help.

It wasn’t long ago that I was helping a colleague with some reporting. She didn’t know where to start and soon got overwhelmed and lost as she didn’t know SQL.

I felt really bad, as she was under pressure to get some summary information to her boss, the built-in reports were falling short, and to make them better would require her to know SQL. At that time that seemed impossible! It in dawned on me, it doesn’t have to be that way.

Then I discovered a way for anyone with the desire to easily learn SQL. I worked with my co-worker, started to teach her what I learned and soon she was able to write reports and answer her boss’ questions without getting stressed or ploughing hours into manipulating data in Excel.

It hasn’t always been easy. Sometimes the information seems abstract or too conceptual. In this case I’ve found out that a visual explanation is best. I really like to use diagrams or videos to explain hard-to-grasp ideas.

Having video, pictures, and text really help to reinforce the point and enable learning.

And now I want to help you get the same results.
