I love making data useful to people! My skills are best in data manipulation, systems administration/engineering, and untangling complicated data/lineages.
Recently I’ve been busy with work and starting graduate school but thankfully I’m back in a position where I can start updating my projects again. Keep an eye out for new content and check out my resume in the meantime. If you’re intersted in something I haven’t posted yet, send me an email and I’ll be happy to talk!
Outside of work and school I enjoy tea, immersive experiences, and my data side-hobby is datasets of cultural institutions.
As a recent grad trying to find a job, any information I can get to help my job search is valuable. By tracking site traffic, I can try to measure whether recruiters are getting past my resume.
