✨I’m a Data Analyst with 20+ years of experience as a Sign Language Interpreter and a plethora of random domain knowledge in healthcare, education, psychology, linguistics, and nutrition. Curious? 😎 Read on… ✨I looove languages. My grandfather was a linguist living and working in Thailand and Myanmar. I grew up hearing stories of his adventures and dreamed that one day I too would be a big-brained language wrangler, traveling the world and solving problems. At the time I didn’t really understand what a linguist was, so I likened it to a detective who solved mysteries using the power of languages. When I stumbled upon American Sign Language it was like a key to a secret world. It was beautiful, mysterious, and full of creative expression. I am amazed this same mystery and creative expression exists within program languages as well - each one opens a door to a world of information just waiting to be played with! I looove a good transformation story. From shows like “House Hunters” and “Tidying Up with Marie Kondo”, to seeing my friend’s 1970’s wood paneling become a state-of-the-art kitchen, witnessing and being part of transformation is immensely satisfying. I find work projects to be very similar. When transforming data there are setbacks, triumphs, sometimes tears (and a few too many late night RedBulls), but always exciting results. It is rife with persistence, dedication, passion, and a few pointed fingers at the monitor “ha! I got you!” Even when the end product is unexpected, the information learned throughout is invaluable. I looove solving problems. Growing up I was always that “I’ve got a solution to your problem” friend. A natural born communicator and peace-maker, they could always count on me to find creative fixes to their problems with clarity and diplomacy. Whether it was relationships, feedback on writing assignments, how to best organize a junk drawer, or what to pack for a one week trip to Nepal using only one carry-on item - I was your gal. I looove humans: what we think, why we do what we do, how the body works, and what drives us. In short, I think humans are neat. I would love to live and play in the world of data with other humans like me. I want to be someone’s go-to “I’ve a got a solution to your problem” gal. Do you want someone on your team who salivates to transform a pile of “what does this mean…?” into “wow, this is neat!”? Do you have Deaf team members who would love to collaborate with someone in their native language? Then I’m the unicorn for you. 🦄
