About the
Blog’s Author
Hi, I am Rick Dobson, an analyst and a computer programmer
who earned his Ph.D. at Arizona State University in psychology along with 12
hours of graduate-level computer science courses for one of my foreign language
requirements. I started my career as an
Assistant Professor at Mary Washington College where I taught statistics, computer
programming, and psychology.
After three years as a professor, I entered the business
world as a consumer research professional at General Motors Research
Laboratories and a collection of other businesses and governmental entities,
including the Federal Highway Administration and General Electric.
After leaving General Electric, I earned Microsoft
certifications in Access, Excel, and SQL Server and started my own consulting
practice. During this period, I authored seven books
that focused primarily on database programming and initiated a seminar
practice. My books attracted attendees to
in-person and web-based seminars on Access and SQL Server offered through my
consulting practice. My seminar practice
terminated shortly after the disaster on September 11 in 2001. It was also during this period that I started
trading and investing in financial securities.
Subsequent to the conclusion of my seminar practice, I held succession
of database application development positions at the largest nuclear plant in
North America as well as at healthcare, finance, and human resources
organizations. At about the same time, I
became a contributing author to MSSQLTips.com.
Since becoming a contributing author, I have published over 175 articles
with a substantial share of them on T-SQL programming for trading and investing
in financial securities. It was the
experience of writing these articles that motivated me to start this blog on
security trading analytics.
