Hire Me Because

I am well versed in finding unique solutions to seemingly impossible challenges. Through all my years of both professional and personal experience, I have learned how to adapt to any situation, keep my cool during a crisis, and communicate effectively.


My Capstone Project: Social Record

Together with a team, we consolidated data from several federal and state sources to determine if socioeconomic indicators (such as poverty and food access) can explain the prevalence of COVID cases in Texas counties. Using our unique data set, we focused on smaller counties to help identify their vulnerability to COVID. Hypotheses testing ruled out social vulnerability groups we previously thought would be strongly impacted by COVID. With the aid of Tableau, we were able to further explore and visualize our findings.

“With technology, I am most passionate about visualizing data in a way that is easily consumed by everyone.
