One Big Table Consulting is a boutique data engineering and AI strategy practice serving enterprise analytics leaders across media, technology, retail, and manufacturing.
I'm Maria Wright-Noor, Founder and Managing Principal of One Big Table Consulting, a boutique data architecture and AI strategy practice based in San Diego, California. I advise CDOs, CTOs, and senior analytics leaders on the infrastructure required to deploy AI with confidence instead of crossed fingers.
With 15+ years delivering enterprise data and AI work across DirecTV, Microsoft, Seagate, and Nike, I've built my career at the intersection of media SaaS analytics, consumer retail intelligence, e-commerce, marketing performance, and customer journey strategy, all within management consulting engagements built to produce outcomes you can measure.
My path has moved from data scientist to AI builder to AI solution architect, and my toolset reflects that arc: Claude, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, Tableau, Power BI, and the Power Platform, backed by SQL, R, and design-led data storytelling.
I lead cross-functional programs that transform fragmented systems into cohesive infrastructures businesses can operate effectively. Read my full philosophy →
