ABOUT ME
Data Analyst | Data Scientist | Python, Pandas, Data Visualization | Machine Learning
Data Analyst | Data Scientist | Python, Pandas, Data Visualization | Machine Learning
  • I am a consultant with expertise in python for data science, analytics, and visualization.

  • Time is valuable, so for the sake of transparency, my expectation is the session timer begins once we are in the Zoom. To minimize your cost, have a clearly defined request. If it takes 15 minutes to explain the request, that’s still billable time. Thank you.

  • I often see questions related to getting starting with python, for which I recommend using the Anaconda Distribution for your OS.

  • See Getting Started with Anaconda Individual Edition & Anaconda User Guide

  • Use Jupyter Lab, not Jupyter Notebook, because Lab is the updated version of Notebook, and Lab is a better environment.

  • Use Python >=3.9, because Python 2.7 sunset on 2020-01-01. If you are just starting out, and using 2.7, you are not using your time wisely.

  • My Code Examples will provide a sense of my coding style.

- I have performed contract work for various companies, including Intel, as a hardware test engineer. - This has involved using python to automate the measurement process for collecting data from electronics components such as RF transmitters and CPUs. - Automation vastly increases the efficiency and throughput of measurements. - In addition to implementing automated data collection, I have used the python ecosystem of modules for data analysis and visualization.
