Bite-sized and snack-sized points about me:

• Student at DigitalCrafts, a 16 week, full-time, intesive coding bootcamp
• Currently on week five of Coursera's Applied Data Science with Python course and loving it!
• Former IT Business Process Analyst with two achievements I'm particularly proud of:
• Ran an annual cyber security project for three years, eliminating 80% of discovered security vulnerabilities(over 2,000!) every year through meticulous planning and vigilant monitoring. In the end I achieved my goal of completely eliminating the need for this to be a project altogether, and the activities got rolled in to operations.
• Created a dashboard of the IT department's activities. Why so special? There were over 1,000 IT employees across five global regions with four divisions, and 5,000,000+ (and growing!) service tickets. This was implemented through an OLAP cube in SQL Server Analysis Services, and sparked my interest in data.
• Before I was a BPA, I was a Release Management Systems Administrator, mostly deploying out .NET web apps. The troubleshooting was the most rewarding part of that job.
• Incorrigible foodie
• Semi-pro photographer
• Finally, here's my resume for the more formally inclined
