    Meet Sarah – Founder, Data Educator, and Bagel Enthusiast

    From an early age, Sarah had two great loves: books and bagels. Growing up in Wisconsin, she was deep in bagel culture (yes, it’s a thing), thanks to her mom’s constant supply of doughy delights. Fast forward to adulthood, and while her love for bagels has only grown stronger, she’s also added a new obsession to the mix—data.

    As the Founder and Chief Learning Officer of Be Data Lit, a data education and consulting firm, Sarah is on a mission to make data less intimidating for beginners and help people actually use it in their work. She’s passionate about breaking down data concepts, exploring workforce trends, and—of course—talking about her cats (because priorities).

    When she’s not teaching or podcasting, you’ll find her in Charleston, hanging out with her husband, her cats, and—no surprise—eating bagels.

    Meet Dave - Turning Data Headaches into Conversations (and Maybe a Rock Anthem)

    Dave Ingram is the founder and CEO of Querri, an AI-powered data platform that lets you talk to your spreadsheets instead of battling them into submission. Tech runs in his blood—his grandfather built radio stations, his dad was a chief engineer, and Dave? He was coding before he even had a driver’s license.

    After years in big tech, he swapped corporate life for the wild world of startups in Charleston, SC, where he’s now on a mission to make data work smarter (so you don’t have to work harder). When he’s not making AI do the heavy lifting, he’s either wrangling three kids, debugging something around the house, or rocking out as the lead singer of a band—because data isn’t the only thing that deserves a good rhythm.
