I grew up in Fort Myers, Florida and got my degree in economics at Florida Gulf Coast University.

I have always loved math (enough to endure a minor in it), and had a strong hunch that I would like coding, so I took the plunge and enrolled in an intensive 24-week Data Analytics Boot Camp at George Washington University. I developed my data analysis, cleaning, and visualization skills, along with application development. I ended up really liking Python and JavaScript. You can see the complete syllabus for the program here.

Currently, I work in Chevy Chase, MD as a Senior Data Analyst for a tech-forward real estate firm.

When I am not working, I enjoy playing chess (badly), crafting, and generally exploring the DC/Arlington area.
