**Abstract:**
We’ve all had to work with XML at some point, and you may have even searched XML documents in a text editor. However, did you know you can query XML documents within SQL Server? In this session, I’ll show you how you can query XML documents as a data source right, along with SQL Server tables and how to optimize your queries for better performance. You’ll learn how to check conditions that determine if the data you need exists and how to deal with incomplete or missing data.

**Agenda:**
6:00-6:30 - Networking and speaker setup time
6:30-6:35 - Opening remarks & Introductions
6:35 - Speaker time!

My name is Aaron N. Cutshall. I attended Ball State University (alma mater of Dave Letterman) and graduated in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a minor in Astrophysics.  The computer industry has changed a lot since the mid-’80s!  2001 I returned to school and completed a Master of Science in Computer Information Systems (somewhat like an MBA for computers) in 2004.




I have almost 40 years of experience in systems design, databases, and architecture. For 20 years, I worked on pretty cool projects in the manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution industries.  In 2006, I moved into the healthcare space and never looked back.  I enjoyed it so much that I earned an additional Master of Science in Health Informatics in 2013. My primary focus has been on Clinical Quality Measures and a specialty in performance architecture and tuning for very large data sets. It means so much to me that my work is helping to save lives! In August 2023, I completed a Doctor of Healthcare Administration degree.

I have been quite active in the SQL Server community since I was introduced to it in 2006. I previously served as the chapter leader of the local group of PASS (Professional Association for SQL Server) in Indianapolis (IndyPASS) from mid-2016 to the end of 2017.  I began to give presentations to IndyPASS in early 2012, with my first SQL Saturday presentation in Salt Lake City later the same year.  I presented almost 50 times for database local groups, SQL Saturday sessions, PASS Summit, and many other conferences, both large and small, in cities nationwide. I travel across the country in an RV to give these presentations with my wife and pets as traveling companions (hence the moniker SQLRV).
