I'm a graduate researcher specializing in adding value with data. Skilled in data collection, research methods, data analysis, and technical communication. Ever since I started my journey in education, I've been passionate about using data to make better decisions. I've been fortunate enough to be trained by brilliant academics in Psychology, Economics, Political Science, and many other subjects, always with a focus on how to turn data into insight. I'm an extrovert who loves working with others, but I also love to sit down with a difficult problem and find a creative, scientifically informed solution. I'm a lifelong learner, and spend a lot of my time designing and executing my own research projects. I have experience with a variety of tools for data analysis. I'm proficient in Excel, SPSS, JASP, R, and Python, and have experience collecting, cleaning, organizing, analyzing, and visualizing data. I have a strong background in statistics, and am proficient in a variety of analytic methods, including regression, cluster analysis, ANOVA, crosstabs, factor analysis, and machine learning models. I know that data comes in many forms, so I am comfortable working with words as well as numbers: I have experience in qualitative research and text analysis methods.
