About
My focus in the data analytics field is on data transformation, modeling, optimization, and visualization within Power BI.
My passion for analytics and visualization began in 2017 when I began taking graduate-level coursework in data analytics. Before my entry into my first full-time data role in 2019, I was an academic counselor working with undergraduate students to help them meet their academic and personal goals. Though I wish I had found the analytics field earlier, my counseling skills have helped me listen to stakeholder needs which is always the first and most important step in solving any data challenge. Two questions are always at the forefront of my mind when developing reports: am I providing actionable insight for my stakeholders and am I doing it in a way that makes it easy and intuitive for users to derive these insights? My current work is immensely gratifying because I’m able to spend the majority of my time solving puzzles with the overarching purpose of helping others achieve their goals.
