👋 Get to know Colin McKevitt
Personally, I always find myself with a smile on my face because a smile can change anyone's day! I love to build things, I adore puzzles and solving problems to keep my focus. My new appreciation for data analytics stems from that; there is so much to learn and the more we learn, the more power we give ourselves to understand and manipulate data to tell a story.
Career-wise, I possess a background in engineering and data analysis, with experience gained from reputable companies like Ethicon. When combining this experience with my tenure in hospitality as a successful restaurant manager, my social and communication skills perfectly complement my growing technical expertise. I excel in environments that foster continuous learning and growth. Recognizing the importance of blending technical acumen with effective storytelling in the realm of data, I am enthusiastic about embarking on this journey, knowing that it marks just the beginning of my professional narrative.
