I am super excited (and tired (it's 3:09 AM)) to be diving further into the boundless world of Data Science. One of my best friends was in town a few days ago and he introduced me to Tableau. A couple of days later, I had a fully licensed copy installed on my machine. Two days after that, I got to attend a roundtable discussion at Gleneagles Country Club in Plano, Texas. I was surrounded by a small group of community leaders in Data Science. The cities of Plano and Dallas had representatives there, as well as a variety of Data Scientists from a broad range of companies. It was a great experience, and I can't wait to attend other such events.
I have spent the last several hours pouring over datasets and doing my best to produce something meaningful, all while telling a story.
I have since created two original data visualizations. One shows male and female life expectancies around the world. The other shows Internet usage by country.
And now...
Shower.
And sleep.
In February of 2018, I was denied admission to a Ph.D. program in Linguistics. As I was navigating the application process, I simultaneously revisited a dormant interest in computer science. In March I enrolled in a certified Computer Science class via HarvardX, which I completed four months later. I am at the beginning of a new phase in my life-long learning process and look forward to that which the future will inevitably deliver.
