Professional Background

I became interested in marketing research when I entered the professional workspace. I currently work at Burke Inc, which is a marketing research company. I work as a project manager for our research studies where I help to manage the day to day of our projects. Working with the different departments, including our analytical department, to create a final deliverable for our clients. This position has made me interested in taking a bigger role in assisting with our research reports. This has lead me to join the Xavier MSBA program so that I can put myself in a more hybrid role where I am creating final reports for clients.

Experience with R and Other Analytic Software

I didn’t have any experience with R or any other programming language prior to taking this Data Wrangling course.

Here is a list of some analytical software that I have experience with:

  • Microsoft Excel
  • IBM SPSS
