Welcome! This portfolio showcases the art of data storytelling through my creative work as well as the books that have served as my inspiration. Inherently, data science is a complex endeavor, but when care is taken to craft a compelling story accompanied by intuitive graphics, technical statistics can transform into powerful business initiatives.

A quick note about me, I obtained an MS in Business Analytics from the University of Minnesota - Carlson School of Management in May 2020 and a BS in Industrial Engineering from Iowa State University in December 2018. Along the way, I have provided analytical support to engineers at Walt Disney World, consulted the CDO of Minneapolis, and provided insights to the COO of Tech & Ops at Morgan Stanley. I most recently worked as a Senior Data Analyst for Hulu.
