A TruBridge externship focused on healthcare data analytics, exploring public health datasets and building dashboards and models to examine social determinants of health and infectious disease patterns.
The project analyzed county-level HIV outcomes alongside social determinants of health, selecting CDC BRFSS and AIDSVu datasets, cleaning and merging case and SDOH indicators, and producing visualizations and regressions that highlighted urbanicity and housing cost burden as notable factors. The work was awarded Top Performer by TruBridge.
I produced a cleaned, merged county-level dataset and analytical suite that included Python visualizations, regressions, a slide presentation, and an interactive dashboard comparing income and urbanicity against HIV prevalence.

A Beats by Dre data analytics externship focused on extracting qualitative and quantitative consumer insights from reviews and surveys.
During the Beats by Dre Data Analytics externship, I gained practical skills in analyzing consumer conversations and market trends. I utilized AI tools and data analytics techniques to uncover insights from customer feedback, perform sentiment analysis, and create impactful presentations. This experience deepened my understanding of consumer behavior and informed strategic decision-making
I produced a set of consumer-insight artifacts: a pain-point chart, an AIDA customer-journey spreadsheet, Google Sheets visualizations with thematic clusters, a Python sentiment and competitive analysis report, and a slide deck with prioritized recommendations for Beats Solo Buds.

Learn one of the most in-demand skills shaping the future of work: building AI agents. In this externship, you’ll step into the role of an AI Agent Developer and use n8n to design agents that think, plan, and act on real data — automating insights, decisions, and workflows. No coding experience required. By the end, you’ll create a live dashboard powered by your own AI agents, gaining hands-on experience that applies to any role or industry — from marketing and consulting to product management and data science.
The work developed multiple AI agents and connected them into a Market Intelligence Dashboard, producing visual moodboards, trend reports, competitor analyses, and a content-strategy generator from live and archived data. The work was awarded Top Performer by Wayfair.

Turn six messy CSVs into an analytics database and a Q4 dashboard that drives real business decisions. SQL + Claude.
The externship converted six messy CSV exports from an e-commerce operation into a normalized analytics database and a Q4 dashboard. The work cataloged data sources, defined schema and transformation rules, and produced SQL queries used to populate analytics tables and drive dashboard metrics.
I inspected the available data sources, documented what each file contained, and established which business questions each dataset could support before building the schema and ETL.
