Hey there!

 

I'm a young data rascal, determined to help make better marketing and business decisions by providing the highest quality data insights and predictive analytics possible. I have developed a strong background in predictive analytics, data mining, modeling, machine learning, statistics, operations research, and business with my many years of broad work experience, my undergraduate in mathematics, and my graduate degree in advanced business analytics.

 

When I was 19, I moved to Laos to work for a non-profit which functioned under the radar of their federal government, developing hygienic facilities and schools in the most rural and difficult-to-access regions of the impoverished nation. To some extent, my main purpose in going to Laos was to escape the ridiculousness of American society, a society which up until that point I had rebelled against. However, my time in Laos taught me just how lucky I truly was to have the education I had taken for granted.

 

I also learned that almost any problem could be broken into one of three issues: communication, education, or perspective. Communication and education issues are problems, but can both be easily resolved by a little effort from both parties. However, perspective issues are much more difficult to resolve. One cannot simply step into the perspective of another person, as much as they might try. My solution was to dedicate myself to data science, a set of tools which will continue to increase our ability to understand and accommodate different perspectives.
