Academic Projects

Tableau

Above are some Tableau charts I created during a class. Tableau data visualization was one of my favorite projects. Graphical expression of data brings to life a hidden reality to simple numbers. I chose this project because it was one of the most interesting and valuable things I have learned so far. Data visualization is extremely important in almost all areas of the workplace across many industries.

I learned the skill of data visualization, something extremely important to be effective as a manager. This data visualization built on an earlier excel data project. The result was the images shown above This allowed me to understand how to turn raw data into useable and engaging charts.

If I could do this project again, I'd take more time to learn how to make even better and more impactful visualizations. Tableau has so many amazing options, and learning to effectively use them is something that I aim to do. Beyond my academic requirements, I plan to make to time in order to finish a full course on how to effectively use Tableau, a skill which I expect will be highly valuable in the workplace.

Crossover Projects - Personal/Academic

Cryptocurrency

The financial and cryptocurrency market has caught my eye lately. One of the factors that make this market attractive to me ais the volatility. In markets one can makes money on change. If there's no change, profits don't roll in. As a result of this interest, I've taken to mock trading in order to study the techniques used by traders to catch market movements. As of now, my goal is to turn eight-five dollars into a thousand dollars.

Indicators are extremely important in catching market movements early. With the help of AI, I was able to program my own multiple confluence indicator that combines three different indicators into one chart, allowing me to see different aspects of market sentiment and movement overlaid, providing deep and otherwise unseen insight.

I have found that I like working with this kind of visualization and chart reading. It's highly rewarding when intuition and skill pay off. Furthermore, I have found that I enjoy the concepts cryptocurrency is built on. Blockchain is fascinating, and I consider this a possible future field of work and learning for me

Starbreaker

Starbreaker is novella I've been pondering and planning for quite a while now. The story revolves around a young woman racing against time to save a planet from a mysterious apocalypse by shattering the planet's magical sun.

The story takes place early in the timeline of a fictional fantasy universe I have been working on. The impacts of the story are far reaching throughout the Arcosm (my universe).

I created this book cover with the help of AI, which enabled me to obtain a picture that closely aligned with the mental image of a book cover I had. With some editing using Canva, an almost professional level result was achieved.
