About Dana Andrea

I have 8 years experience as a technical manager where I specialize in driving digital transformation and data maturity at the enterprise scale. I have a knack for translating business goals into actionable steps, from data collection & pipelines to a scalable product. I\'m just as comfortable presenting results to company leadership as I am whiteboarding with engineers, and by prioritizing a consumer-centric attitude, I\'m able to navigate complex tasks and projects with ease. I enjoy my role immensely, but there was always a voice in my head telling me to try something else.I wanted to build the same things as the developers and engineers I worked with and admired. So that\'s what I\'m doing.With a background in Information Systems, it was a natural transition to the world of big data. Now, as an MSE Data Science candidate at Johns Hopkins, I get to solve interesting problems every day. I’ve been able to: • Use statistical tests to help make business recommendations • Build models and make predictions• Build pipelines to bring cleansed data where it\'s neededIf you are interested in seeing some things I built, come find me on GitHub or my website. Let’s build something cool together: Agile Project Management • DevOps • Software Testing • Data Strategy • Data Modeling • Business Intelligence • Stakeholder Management: Python • SQL : MySQL • Oracle • Microsoft SQL Server • Teradata: Databricks • Pandas • NumPy • SciKit-Learn • Matplotlib • Beautiful Soup • Jupyter Notebooks • VSCode • Github Desktop: Azure : https://github.com/dandrea1: https://dandrea1.github.io/portfolio/
