About

24-time MVP; @AaronBertrand on twitter; blogger at sqlperformance.com, mssqltips.com, and sqlblog.org; OSS contributor (e.g. Brent Ozar's First Responder Kit, Andy Mallon's DBA Database, and my own ParamParser). I use a Mac, curl, cheer for Bruins/Patriots/Nadal, always lose at fantasy football, am the proud father of two beautiful girls, and I'm a Canadian, eh?
