Hello! Most of my activity on SO dates from 2008-2011, when I was deep into relational databases w/ SQL Server. Since then I have moved into other areas including .NET, C#, JS and document databases.

Early influences: Kimball, Date, Codd

It's unfortunate that the order of the clauses in SQL is "wrong". You should say FROM, WHERE, SELECT: Define the universe of relevant data, filter it down, select what you care about
