About McKay Flake
There are over 2 million terabytes of data created every day. Whenever friends and family ask what I do for work, I sum it up in one sentence:\"I find the value in all the data we collect.\" I am a data analyst at Northrup Grumman with a proven track record of uncovering insights that lead to change. Currently specializing in data analysis related to Quality Assurance and Supply Chain Management, I am inspired by those \"ah-ha\" moments when data reveals unexpected trends and empowers my team. I engage in Kaggle competitions and pursue my own passion projects to stay up-to-date of new trends and methods. The continuous learning and application of new ideas drew me to the field of data and keeps my job intriguing, along with the added benefit of keeping me updated. Establishing trust with stakeholders is a vital aspect for any exceptional data professional and serves as a cornerstone of my career. I ensure that every report or notebook I deliver is thoroughly vetted for authenticity and transparency. The prospect of transitioning into Data Science to harness Machine learning methods excites me, as I am passionate about not only describing what the data reveals about the past but also predicting what it signifies for the future. Outside of work, you can find me exploring new destinations or riding my bike and getting into adventures. Feel free to send me a DM if you\'d like to chat. Below are some of the tools and programs I have experience with: Power BI: Dax, M Python: Pandas, TensorFlow, Matplotlib, Seaborn Excel: VBA Oracle SQL Developer MS SQL Server SharePoint Apache Airflow: DAGs used in pipeline creation
