Collect data from various sources (e.g., databases, spreadsheets, external data sources).Enter research data into databases and ensure accuracy and completeness of data records.Clean and process data to remove inconsistencies, errors, missing values, etc., to ensure data is accurate and ready for analysis.Assist in the analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data to identify patterns and trends in data sets using statistical and analytical tools (e.g., Excel, SPSS, SAS, R, Dedoose, NVIVO) to draw meaningful conclusions. Utilize programming languages such as Python, R, or others to automate analysis processes and develop custom solutions.Execute integration strategies to merge data from multiple sources. Ensure the accuracy of data by implementing quality assurance processes and regular data audits.Take initiative to address challenges related to data, data analysis, and reporting, finding solutions to complex problems and improving data processes.Depict complex data findings graphically for a lay audience (e.g., static visualizations, interactive data dashboards).Prepare detailed reports, summaries, and professional presentations of research findings for internal use, conferences, and publications. Adhere to ethical standards and data privacy regulations in all aspects of data analysis.Conduct comprehensive literature reviews and gather relevant background information for multiple functions (e.g., proposal writing, projects, reports).

Cyclical multisite data collection through Qualtrics, data cleaning using R, and automated generation of site summary reports with text, tables, and figures using R markdown.

As part of the Office of Institutional Research and Analysis, I am responsible for analyzing data across 13 constituent universities and health science centers, generating periodic reports, creating informative data visualizations and dashboards for both internal and external use, and maintaining documentation for project tasks.

Taught EDP308 "Statistical Reasoning and Literacy", an introductory undergraduate statistics course. Developed course syllabus, homework assignments, instructional activities, and exams. Performed all grading and maintained course Canvas page.

Most of my work involved managing, merging, cleaning, and analyzing large state-level and national education datasets for several different Principal Investigators across numerous projects. I reviewed output from those analyses to ensure FERPA compliance in accordance with institutional standards, generated graphical data displays, and contributed to technical reports delivered to state agencies and nonprofit partners alike. I have performed a variety of different analyses, from generating… Show more Most of my work involved managing, merging, cleaning, and analyzing large state-level and national education datasets for several different Principal Investigators across numerous projects. I reviewed output from those analyses to ensure FERPA compliance in accordance with institutional standards, generated graphical data displays, and contributed to technical reports delivered to state agencies and nonprofit partners alike. I have performed a variety of different analyses, from generating basic descriptive statistics to estimating propensity scores using generalized boosted models. I conducted analyses using R or SAS depending upon my collaborators' preference. Show less
