ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Eric Isberg. As a BI Implementation Specialist with Zone & Co.'s ZoneReporting team, I blend my expertise in business intelligence, diverse technologies, Microsoft's Azure cloud platform, and NetSuite to design and deploy financial reports through our SaaS solution, Power BI. My day-to-day involves sourcing and analyzing data from various cloud platforms, crafting intuitive dashboards and visualizations, and ensuring the seamless reliability of our cloud-integrated reports.

What truly captivates me is the transformative power of the cloud. Its scalability, adaptability, and efficiency are reshaping industries, and being at the forefront of this wave is exhilarating. Through Azure, along with tools like SQL Server and Azure DevOps, I have the privilege of turning raw data into actionable insights that can drive business strategies and innovations.

In this digital age, where data-driven decisions are paramount, I am committed to leveraging the best of cloud technologies to ensure that businesses can harness their data's full potential and stay ahead of the curve.

I built this page as part of the Cloud Guru Azure Resume Challenge.
