About

I am an independent, well-rounded and multi-faceted data scientist. My experience ranges across a multitude of domains, from Python and SQL to eight years with music production software/audio engineering. As a car enthusiast, I have grown fond of working with the mechanics within cars and have considerable knowledge within the domain.

Nature is of great inspiration, and as such, I love to adventure-- both outside and inside the workplace. Having a creative, organized, and ambitious personality, I strive to find a better way to do things based on a first-principles approach. I am able to work and communicate cross-functionally across teams to execute broad and interdisciplinary projects.

I built Raspberry Pi-based traffic monitors and worked with the sensor data to find a workaround for a personally burdening scenario. I took what could have been a data entry project and converted it to a data transformation project, which saved the company hours of time and eased the transition to a new inventory software. I utilized my own data to create insights for myself and my well-being.

Data are the tracks left behind by everything. I harness the tools to maximally leverage insight from those tracks and create a better world for myself, my community, my company, and outwards.
