Excel Inspector Database Build

I need help turning a pile of scattered information—mostly sitting in my email threads and LinkedIn connections—into a clean, searchable Excel workbook. The goal is to end up with a well-structured database of inspectors so I can quickly locate the right person for future assignments.

Here’s how I picture the file: separate sheets will keep things tidy—one tab dedicated to core contact details, another for professional experience highlights, and others for certifications, current location, typical day rate, and known availability. Within each sheet I still want the usual Excel conveniences (filters, basic sorting) so I can slice the data any way I like.

You’ll have access to the relevant email folders plus a spreadsheet of my LinkedIn profile links to work from. From those two sources, please capture:

• Name and primary contact info
• Career background that shows inspection experience
• Certifications and qualifications (API, NDT, CWI, etc.)
• Current location and willingness to travel
• Stated or historical day rate
• Upcoming availability windows

Accuracy is critical—no guessing if a detail isn’t clearly stated. When a field is missing just mark it “N/A” so I know it was checked.

Deliverables:
1. An Excel workbook with the data split across the dedicated sheets described above.
2. A brief “read-me” tab explaining the sheet layout and any assumptions made while compiling.

If this sounds straightforward to you and you’re comfortable digging through email threads and LinkedIn profiles without missing details, let’s get started.
