F.A.Q.
My curiosity for data analytics started several years ago with my bachelor’s degree and my internship at SONDA IT. Later, my master’s degree at the University of Twente was heavily focused on data analytics, where I learnt the theory and very useful tools like SPSS, R and advanced Excel. Finally, in my experience working in the Netherlands, I discovered the real potential of data and how most business decisions should be data driven, not gut driven. Plus, I really want to become proficient in SQL, R and Python.
After finishing my Master’s degree, I decided to give Chile (my country of origin) a chance to start my professional career. Unfortunately, a little after returning to Chile there was a strong social outbreak in which Chileans fought for a more fair country. This came hand in hand with many protests and strikes, which increase uncertainty levels and decrease open vacancies.
When things were beginning to stabilize, the pandemic began. It was there when, together with my Dutch girlfriend, we decided to return to the Netherlands and build our future here.
Upon returning to the Netherlands, many job offers were also being postponed due to the pandemic. It was then, when my former boss gave me the great opportunity to become the Innovation Officer at CMC. Despite not being a Data Analyst position, I will always be extremely grateful for this opportunity as it helped me not only to grow a lot personally, it was also an important first step to my professional life.
What I like the most is that when I’m exploring the data I feel like a detective solving a case.
At this time, only the basics. I must admit that it is very difficult to learn it being Spanish my native language. However, I am going to learn it since it is a very important step in my integration in the country that has given me so many opportunities.
Since I studied the basic during my master and after I got the Data Analyst certification from Google (which teaches R), my programming language of choice is R.
But I do believe in cross-language collaboration, so my goal is to learn Python as well. The one I will master will depend of the needs of my future employer.
