Bio
Hi, my name is Jeff Asselin. I am a data analyst based in Boston, MA. I have extensive experience with ad-hoc data analyses in the digital experience space, particularly in the areas of web traffic, user engagement, and audience development, using tools such as Oracle SQL, Python, R, and Tableau. I also have expertise in project management, data product management, data dashboard and reporting creation and maintenance, and data visualization design and development. I am always looking to experiment with and improve upon best practices within these topic areas, and am especially interested in the emerging, changing, and improving landscape of data engineering and data product management.
I wanted to start a blog mostly because I am inspired by the incredible content on other individuals’ and companies’ data blogs and hope to bring something to the conversation; I want to showcase what I have learned (academically, professionally, and by messier means), particularly in areas beyond my core competencies, and collaborate with other data practitioners wherever and whenever possible (reach out to me on Twitter if you are interested in a collaboration!), and figured my own space in the ether was the best path forward. Lastly, my hope is that by sharing my work I can help or inspire others following a similar journey.
This blog was created and will be maintained using RStudio and the distill R package; thank you to RStudio, the maintainers of distill, and the open-source community.
