I'm Anna (pronounced Ahh-nuh), and I'm a data analyst, data visualization designer, and experienced program manager with a ten year background in managing initiatives for nonprofits and mission-driven institutions.
I'm passionate about communicating big data insights in compelling ways for non-experts and data enthusiasts alike. I'm especially interested in creative data storytelling in digital humanities contexts, often through mixed methods that include spatial data and GIS. I transitioned to data analytics from the education world, so when I work on creating an interesting data story, my goal is to convey my own enthusiasm for discovering new findings to my audience, and to bring them alongside my research process.
My skills include big data management and statistical tools primarily in Python and R, spatial data analysis and spatial statistics in ArcGIS, ArcPy, Mapbox and QGIS, database development and management in SQL, digital analytics evaluation in Google Analytics and Looker Studio, and data visualization and storytelling through a variety of design and dashboard tools including Tableau, ArcGIS Online, Figma, and Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign.
I am completing my Master's of Science in Data Analytics & Visualization at Pratt Institute this spring 2024 with an Advanced Certificate in Spatial Analysis and Design (GIS). I have a previous Master's in Education focused on Technology, Innovation, & Education from Harvard University, completed in 2016. My undergraduate degrees are a B.S. in Economics & Mathematics and a B.A. in French from the University of Southern California in 2011.
