Data Mining: Module 2 Homework
About Me
My name is Nikki Carfora and I am from Centerville, Ohio. I love to travel, hike, and spend time with my friends. On campus I am involved in the UC Climbing Club and am hoping to go to more sporting events this year. The above photo was taken on a trip with my parents to London in August!
Academic Background
I went to Indiana University for my first year, then transferred to UC because of the co-op program. Since then, I have been majoring in Business Analytics and Information Systems, with a Spanish Minor. I am planning to graduate in the summer or fall of 2025.
Professional Background
I currently have an on campus job with the Transition Advising Office. I help students navigate advising appointments regarding major changes, as well as assist with senior audits and nono-matriculated students. Outside of that, I have completed 3 co-op rotations at Delta Air Lines in the Operations and Customer Center. I work a lot with PowerAutomate and PowerApps to help the Emergency Management team remain prepared for anything. It has been incredibly interesting so far, and I am excited to return for a fourth rotation next summer.
Experience with R
I do not have a lot of experience with R, as I have only taken one class with it, which was mostly with data visualizations and things of that sort. I would like to become more proficient in it this semester.
Experience with Other Analytic Software
I’ve used Excel and PowerBI for most of my analyses thus far. I’m in classes where I have to learn other programming languages, like Python, C#, and HTML, and am hoping that having a foundational understanding of each one will help me to learn the others.
