About Me

I am a software developer with a passion for data and analysis. After working as a software engineer for 15 years, I spent several years as a lay leader in the non-profit world. I've been updating my programming and data analysis skills in a six-month Data Analytics and Visualization Bootcamp at George Washington University and recently graduated.

I'm thoroughly enjoying getting back to my roots -- coding with a focus on data, databases, and analysis. Each new discovery is exhilarating. Now I’d like to leverage my technical and leadership skills to develop data analytics applications and visualizations to guide business operations and decision-making. Ultimately I'd like to attain a leadership role in the data analytics industry.

I also enjoy genealogy, reading, and collecting art.

I worked in a team of 3 on this project. We used Python, SQL, Flask, and various APIs to collect and analyze data.
