Dan Brickey HEADSHOT
About

I build governed, auditable data platforms — the kind teams can trust and auditors can follow. My work pairs disciplined modeling (Data Vault 2.0, Kimball) with modern, AI-leveraged engineering, and I care as much about lineage and documentation as I do about throughput.

Selected Work · Log
01 · Healthcare Data Platform
→ VIEW

Claims and clinical data usually live trapped in fragmented, un-auditable legacy systems. This is a governed Data Vault 2.0 + Kimball platform on synthetic claims and clinical data — spec-driven and AI-leveraged end to end, with full historization and lineage you can trace from source to dashboard.

02 · Gazetteer
→ VIEW

Comparing where to live means wrestling a dozen disagreeing public datasets with no common ground. Gazetteer unifies them into one Data Vault 2.0 platform — cost of living, income, jobs, and health, lined up for the same place and period — so “where's my happy place” gets a real, data-backed answer.
