About

I'm Matt and I am a research data analyst and published author who has worked in higher education institutions for over twenty years. My undergrad degree is in Psychology and I've earned a master's degree in Information Systems. I've been in various professional roles in the data analytics space and I am the author of Learn RStudio IDE, Quick, Effective, and Productive Data Science published by Apress.

My primary professional focus is working with datasets, analyzing problems, and creating data dashboards and I lean towards the more technical data analytics roles. I started as a statistical programmer using SAS to help with psychometrics for the PRAXIS and TOEFL assessement tests; then I went on to work on the SAT with College Board, develop mobile apps for the iPhone, published five books on technology, and now I'm working on ERP/SIS reporting at a nearby college.

Technology

Here is the technology that I have used most recently:

I have a broad range of experience in other programming languages for both analytics and applications including SAS, Python, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), iOS, Swift, and C# and can pick up new programming languages and analytics packages as needed.
