ABOUT ME
Data & Systems Architect (SQL, SSRS, Access, Excel, VBA, PowerBI, Azure ADF)
Data & Systems Architect (SQL, SSRS, Access, Excel, VBA, PowerBI, Azure ADF)

A UK-based Data Professional, I have over 20 years experience in Excel, Access, SQL and VBA, and have learnt a ton about data, reporting, automation, and how to make the systems I design work smarter to add real business value.

The majority of my career to date has been in:
-Microsoft Office products (Access, Excel, VBA programming)
-Microsoft SQL (databases, stored procedures, SSRS, SSIS, PowerBI, Optimization)
-PowerShell (script creation)
-Data imports/exports
-Azure DevOps, including Azure Data Factory Pipelines, Powershell, Chocolatey and more
-Data Warehouse creation, systems integration
-Creating useful and timely information systems (reports, dashboards) with data from one or multiple sources

I have worked in a number of industries including Automotive Manufacturing, Oil/Gas/Nuclear, Engineering, Food Manufacturing, amongst others, and have extensive experience with MES, ERP and PLM system integration.

I am passionate about what I do, and want to pass on some of the knowledge and expertise that I've acquired over the years. I've only just got started on CodeMentor, but really enjoy working with Clients from around the world to help them make sense of the issue they are trying to troubleshoot.

If you're struggling with an issue in any of the areas I specialise in, you are very welcome to contact me to discuss your issue. Our initial discussion will be completely free of charge, to ascertain whether I can provide the support you need - and if you're happy to proceed, then we'll get started!

If you need something more longer-term or a piece of work completing, we can discuss that, too. I've successfully completed a number of freelancing projects, both large and small, and am willing to negotiate my fee for these projects.

I look forward to working with you! :-)

Built my first application within Access in 2003, and continued to grow and develop from there. Over 100 applications written, I generally use Access because it's a quick and easy front end for a robust Database application connecting to SQL Server

What a great mentor. My company asked me to start a database for the testing we are doing. Within just a few days, I knew that I was way over my head. Adam in just a few hours had me up and running. His knowledge of access and database work is second to done. I will contnue to us Adam for all my database needs.

Did a Zoom with Mr. Taylor and an end of the week response was acceptable. He stayed up late and plowed through my problem and in a short time a result was given. Problem Solved!. Very gratefull!

I highly recommend Adam for future work! He went above and beyond my expectations. He quickly completed the SQL database freelance job, formed creative solutions in Azure Data Factory, while ensuring all of his processes were well-documented. He’s extremely professional, and I’d hide him again in a heartbeat!

Adam has been very helpful in walking me through MS Access database I am creating. In the process I am learning things I did not know were there. He is very knowledgeable and shared other helpful information. Highly Recommend.

Adam was responsive. He worked quickly. He fully understood what I needed as was able to provide a solution. He also explained what we were doing and why so I would understand. It was a pleasure working with him.
