In this episode of The DATA SECRETS Podcast, I sit down with Luke Komiskey, founder and CEO of DataDrive, a managed analytics consulting company that helps organizations turn data chaos into business clarity.
Luke shares how his journey from corporate analytics leader to entrepreneur revealed a massive gap in how most businesses think about (and act on) their data. We dig into:
- Why most “data strategies” fail to produce meaningful impact
- How managed analytics bridges the gap for organizations that can’t justify a full in-house data team
- The hidden costs of under-utilized BI platforms like Power BI and Tableau
- Practical ways to measure the actual ROI of analytics initiatives
- Why starting with the business problem (not the data) changes everything
- Lessons learned from scaling DataDrive’s team and client base across industries
From uncovering small changes that lead to big wins, to building a repeatable process for data maturity, Luke brings an operator’s and founder’s lens to what it really takes to make analytics drive revenue, efficiency, and innovation.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
