What I Do

Data Visualization

With 2+ years of experience using Tableau, AWS QuickSight, RStudio, and a lifetime of working with Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, data visualization is not only one of my stronger skills, it is also one of my biggest passions. Making complex data comprehensable, visually appealing, and easy to apply to business solutions is always a task I can accomplish. Any visualizations that I create are guaranteed to please employees and customers alike.

Data Cleaning and Processing

While tedious and time-consuming, making sure that data is collected properly and kept as accurate as possible is important to me. I work hard to ensure that I am able to communicate with all kinds of people, softwares, and systems to keep information accurate and usable for any organization.

Cloud Engineering

One of my newest forms of intellectual interest and skill building is development and deployment of cloud infrastructure, resources, and software/application deployment. With 2 years of experiences utilizing the AWS management console I have done domain management, administration of various servers, organizational management and access controls, billing and budgeting, web application building/deployment, autoscaling, pipelining, data extraction and management, and so much more. This website is hosted on my own AWS cloud architecture, and it demonstrates these skills in its portfolio sections.

Data Analysis

Using datasets to solve business issues is one of my more versatile skills. I have experience using statistical analysis softwares like Rstudio and SPSS, as well as AWS kinesis. Whenever a problem needs solved with a data driven answer I can always provide my services.

Database Administration

With my 2+ years of experience designing and implementing database architecture, securing database access from hardware and software vulnerabilities, creating and populating relational tables, and updating and querying datasets, there is no database administrative task that I cannot handle in any Database Management Service or environment (on premise, cloud, hybrid, etc.).

System Administration

One of my greatest strengths and my longest field of experience by far (6+ years) is in system administration and technical support. From a young age I have helped those close to me navigate, troubleshoot, setup, and enjoy the technology that they use and love. My experience is this field is quite broad and forever expanding. I have worked with devices of all types and sizes, programs of many different designs and use cases, and people of many different departments and backgrounds. Rest assured that all IT devices and services will run smoothly and employees as well as customers will be satisfied in my care.
