Have you ever wondered why your staff is using Excel spreadsheets and Google Docs to track data when you have a perfectly good central database for that purpose?
We see this problem over and over. If data is warehoused in disparate files, its value is seriously diminished. Plus, overall efficiency suffers whenever you actually try to use the data

I, as any passing conversation with either my mother or any of my childhood math teachers will quickly reveal, hate math. I spent the entirety of my childhood doodling, sleeping, daydreaming, and anything else that I could during anything that had even a passing resemblance to arithmetic. In a blaze of teenage stereotype, I reasoned that the only math I would ever truly need to know was how to add two paychecks together.
Turns out it isn’t quite that easy. Now I spend my days helping nonprofit organizations analyze and use their data effectively, with math.
