David D. Email & Phone Number

I always thought I would work in Therapy or Clinical Psychology, acquiring my BA in Psychology & Sociology, but I consistently felt I enjoyed Statistics a little more and stumbled upon this course in I/O Psychology while working as a Business Intelligence Specialist. Enamored with improving workplaces with research and data, I decided to pursue a MA after some much-needed soul searching (I secretly kept wondering about being a therapist). This led to where I am now, working in compensation and falling for all the aspects of being an analyst. To me, this is only the beginning. As a Compensation Analyst, I have a deep-seated passion for extracting, exploring, and transforming salary and people data to build and administer Compensation Structures and Programs. Supported through insightful Dashboards, and Reports, I have been instrumental in developing and implementing my current organization's first compensation structure. Highly detail-oriented, methodical, and familiar with data analysis processes and tools, I am always looking to incorporate statistical and data analytics more into compensation, and the entire HR function, to make more informed decisions. Continuous learning also drives me, and I am always open to expanding my skills, while also upskilling on my own, with exposure to other domains of data analytics, noting my experience in Institutional Research acting as a Business Intelligence Specialist.Hard Skills: Compensation Structure Development, Market Analysis, Job Analysis, Survey Development & Administration, MS Excel (Advanced - Macros & VBA), PayFactors, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, R (Statistical Analysis)Actively Learning: Python & R (Programming)Thanks for reading!
