"I bring expertise in statistics, social sciences research, and public health. I've published one paper in a journal which contained a factor analysis I conducted. In addition, I supported my state's public health response to Covid as a member of the Covid Analytics team. I specialize in SPSS, data analysis, and scientific research. I have further automated tasks and scripts in R. My newest skills include machine learning, classification, and predictive analytics.

While in graduate school, I taught a course in research design and statistics introducing undergraduates to the fundamentals of the research process such as gathering information, formulating testable ideas, designing surveys and experiments, analyzing data in SPSS, writing papers, and presenting posters. I am a published author having validated the Emotion-Focused Interaction Scale through exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses.

I am extremely proficient in SPSS, having used it in both undergraduate and graduate school. Nearly half of my graduate degree is in statistics, including a specially designed independent study course in advanced statistical modeling covering advanced topics like factor analysis and multilevel modeling. Here is a comprehensive list of topics I am familiar with and teach: t-tests, correlation, nonparametric tests (Friedman, Kruskal-Wallis, Spearman correlation), ANOVA, repeated measures, between subjects, and mixed designs, regression, factor analysis, logistic regression, discriminant analysis, ROC analysis, MANOVA (multivariate ANOVA), reliability analysis (Cronbach's alpha), and structural equation modeling.
