I'm a Master of Public Policy candidate (expected 2021) at the University of Chicago interested in data-driven solutions to challenges in social and economic policy. Previously, I worked as a journalist and in communications for non-profit organizations that conduct research, advocacy, and technical assistance to improve economic outcomes for vulnerable communities. I have experience in data cleaning and statistical analysis in R and Python, and am eager to build my skills further. I would love to assist organizations by preparing data sets for analysis and conducting analyses!
