Based on data from more than nine sources, this dashboard was designed to report county level early childhood education data that pairs with the Indiana level data in the Annual Needs Assessment. This dashboard helps inform communities so they can make program and funding decisions to improve early childhood education. I also support organizations with quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis. Whether it’s an interactive dashboard or static reports, I can turn your data analysis into an understandable visualization that tells an organization's story. Beyond collecting data and creating visualizations, I also train organizations how to sustain visualizations and use some of the same analysis techniques. Organizations leave knowing the best tips and tricks to visualize data, create dashboards, implement Continuous Quality Improvement, train their own staff, and more! I have done technical training around Tableau Desktop, Microsoft Excel, SurveyMonkey, and National Student Clearinghouse. I am Tableau Desktop Certified and ready to assist community impact organizations with their Tableau needs. In my free-time, I enjoy playing and coaching volleyball. In the fall, I coach a middle school volleyball team. I also enjoy summers and time on the lake. I live in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area with my husband. Show less
