Welcome to my meanderings

Hello visitor,

I am Levi Johnston. My passions include technology mostly of the software variety, but I have dived into some hardware hacking.

With this blog I plan on writing various things about the solutions I’ve found that I don’t want to forget. It might bore you to tears, but hopefully you’ll learn a thing or two, and skip past some of the pitfalls I’ve encountered. My current career trajectory is dealing with big data and providing meaningful nuggets from the mounds of data. I also build OLTP and OLAP data schemas and integration packages mostly working with Microsoft technologies, but I also work with Oracle and MySQL frequently. SQL, SSIS, Crystal Reports and SSRS are my forte, but here is a trimmed list of technologies and applications I am familiar with in alphabetical order:

  • AHK
  • ANSI SQL
  • Business Objects
  • Crystal Reports
  • C#.NET
  • CSS
  • HTML/5
  • Javascript
  • JQuery
  • mIRC MSL
  • Microsoft Access
  • Microsoft SQL Server 2000,2005,2008,2008R2,2012
    • Administration
    • Design
    • Development
  • Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)
  • Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)
  • Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
  • Microsoft Team Foundation Server
  • MySQL
  • Node.JS
  • Oracle
  • PHP
  • PL/SQL
  • Raspberry Pi
  • T-SQL
  • Visual Basic 6
  • Visual Basic.NET
  • Visual Studio
  • XML

This list is incomplete, and will be amended as I continue. When articles are written, I will link them to keywords.
