I am a Data and AI lead consultant specializing in Power BI semantic modeling and data visualization.

After a decade in quantitative risk analysis in the oil and gas industry, I shifted to "the new oil" (data) in 2017. Since then I have worked extensively with Diver (Dimensional Insight) and Power BI and, more recently, Microsoft Fabric since its public preview in 2023. I am also a proficient user of external Power BI tools, with a primary focus on Tabular Editor.

My core passion is enabling teams to build semantic models and visualizations efficiently while maintaining quality.

My professional strength is translating business requirements into actionable, analytical solutions.

I recently became a certified Tabular Editor trainer and have started presenting at community and professional events, including New Stars of Data (May 2025). My talks emphasize a Done in 60 Seconds philosophy: practical demos on how to perform tasks in seconds that normally take hours.

For over 15 years, Rafael Amaral has been committed to advancing the renewable energy industry, contributing to the implementation of utility-scale power systems across several continents. With a foundation in electrical engineering, he understood from the start that field performance builds trust. His focus has consistently been on ensuring turbines operate efficiently, grids remain stable, and teams deliver safely and on time.

Rafael currently serves as Executive Vice President at a renewable energy company, with full P&L responsibility for approximately $220 million in revenue. His responsibilities span field services, repowering, project execution, and asset management across wind, solar, and battery storage in North America.

Rafael's career began in Brazil, where he graduated as valedictorian in Electrical Engineering. Early experience designing high-voltage substations and electrical systems helped him build a strong technical foundation and gain insight into how energy systems respond under pressure. This knowledge became vital as he moved into roles managing large-scale renewable operations.

In 2011, Rafael Amaral of Florida joined a global energy organization, beginning in wind commissioning and site leadership roles. He led efforts in turbine delivery, engineering coordination, and customer interaction. Later, he oversaw service teams across several Latin American countries, managing a $10 million business with around 120 employees. These roles taught him how to lead diverse teams across challenging environments and establish operational clarity.

Rafael's move into global leadership included managing workforce strategy for about 1,600 field employees in 25 countries. He later took on responsibility for international operations valued at nearly $190 million, focusing on process improvement, safety, and margin stability through the practical application of lean principles.

Rafael then led operations in North America and the Americas, overseeing more than 1,200 employees and up to $160 million in revenue. In 2024, he led the integration of over 10 acquired companies into a unified platform. That same year, he was appointed Chief Operating Officer, overseeing construction and operations in the U.S. and Canada.

Throughout his professional journey, Rafael Amaral has remained focused on execution, operational discipline, and long-term value creation in renewable energy.

Dale Hobbie is a multi-patented inventor, mission-critical systems architect, and the founder of Quantum HPC Infrastructure, LLC. With more than 35 years of experience in computational analytics and engineering, he has dedicated his career to solving complex challenges in Power, cooling, and compute reliability. His work focuses on autonomous class-compute infrastructure designed to operate independently while supporting AI, HPC, and quantum workloads. He brings a disciplined and methodical approach to engineering, shaped by decades of hands-on experience in environments where continuity and stability are essential.

Known professionally as D. James Hobbie, he is the inventor of the Cleanewable Hybrid platform, protected under U.S. Patents 11,233,405 B1 and 12,184,075 B1, with multiple continuation-in-part applications and registered trademarks. These innovations extend to carbon-integrated thermals, RTF materials processes, modular enclosure systems, and distributed micro-utility architectures. Hobbie developed this platform to integrate onsite multi-source power generation, advanced thermal loop control, and autonomous operational logic into a unified, repeatable system. His patented work provides a licensable technical foundation intended to support resilient compute environments under variable and demanding conditions.

James Hobbie is the architect of the Operation Quantum Marathon Corridor, a multi-state autonomous compute spine extending approximately 1,500 miles. This corridor was engineered to support federal, commercial, defense, and scientific computing requirements through onsite generation aggregators up to 500 MW+ and interoperable micro-utility frameworks. Hobbie designed the corridor to integrate fiber adjacency, sovereign routing logic, and unified mission continuity architecture across independent regions. The initiative responds to the limitations of grid-dependent infrastructure while maintaining scalability for future compute needs.

As the founder and managing director of Quantum HPC Infrastructure, LLC, Dale James Hobbie leads systems-level engineering governance, multidisciplinary project oversight, and corridor-scale development strategy. Hobbie oversees patent strategy, site modeling, infrastructure adjacency planning, and high-density thermal integration. Under his direction, the organization operates through a Master Project Management Office structure developed in financial partnership with Peter Georgiopoulos and supported by operations advisor Leo Vrondissis. This structure integrates expertise across energy systems, carbon integration, digital infrastructure, and mission-critical engineering while maintaining consistent execution standards.

Before founding QHPC, Hobbie spent over three decades as an independent consultant addressing high-risk, mission-critical reliability challenges across commercial, industrial, government, and defense-aligned environments. He became known as the engineer whom organizations relied upon when systems failed in ways others could not diagnose. His work included stabilizing mission-critical environments, identifying hidden reliability and team-based faults, redesigning obsolete systems, and implementing advanced Power-to-the-Nth pathways. These experiences directly shaped the autonomous class architectures he later codified into patent form.

Dale Hobbie continues to guide the expansion of autonomous-class infrastructure across the United States and allied regions. His engineering philosophy emphasizes systems intuition, long-range thinking, and a clear understanding of interconnected electrical, thermal, mechanical, and digital domains. Through ongoing work in sovereign compute strategy, carbon-integrated thermals, and next-generation enclosure systems, he remains focused on building infrastructure that operates independently and supports uninterrupted computing in future scenarios. He maintains a steady commitment to designing systems and teams that endure, adapt, and remain effective over time.

Marine Corps Veteran, Storyteller, and Hackivist disrupting power-based violence through online access to education and community care with over eighteen years experience in the technical and operational program management of space and military intelligence federal contracts in the United States.

I made a promise to support and defend the United States Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I take that VERY seriously, and will fight for your right to hate me. I will not, however, tolerate acts of violence directed at individuals for simply taking up space, acts of coercion through threats of violence, or any attempt at using violence as a way to maintain power. I will speak out and take the defense for any victim of violence (in all of its forms) and all individuals impacted by the use of power-based violence.

I believe in the power of storytelling energy as a renewable resource capable of magic, the kindness of strangers, and ability to overcome hardship through communal care. I use the arts of satire, drag, and boudoir performance to make light of extremely controversial and traumatic but historical events that surround United States Post World War II Military History.
