Personal Projects

About

Outside of Political Science, I enjoy spending some of my free time statistically analyzing professional basketball. These projects involve leveraging data analysis tools like Tableau and R to gain insights into player performance. Each project represents a meticulous process of data collection, analysis, and visualization, aimed at providing valuable information to basketball and fantasy sports enthusiasts alike.
