About me

High-achieving Data Science student and Chancellor's List honoree at UNC Charlotte with experience in data pipelines, predictive maintenance, and customer analytics. Applies data-driven methods to analyze real-world problems and improve operations.

I am a Sports Analytics major at UNC Charlotte with a deep-rooted passion for the statistics that drive the games we love. While my technical focus is on optimizing performance and strategy in sports, I am equally driven by a passion for digital privacy. I believe that as we collect more data — on the field and off — we have a growing responsibility to handle that information ethically.

My goal is to merge these interests, exploring how high-level analytics can coexist with robust data privacy standards. 10+ years of business experience applying analytics across fleet management, e-commerce, events, and residential services.

Dear recruiter,

Running a sports analytics portfolio isn't for the faint of heart. Especially when you want to do it right. It can be hard to get clean data. You need good questions. Specifically demand careful, reproducible analysis.

We sometimes forget that. They take a long time. Require care.

That's why I did it in the right way.

Love, only me.
