WHAT THIS SITE IS ABOUT


Most data problems are not about advanced techniques. They are about asking better questions, pulling the right data, and slowing down long enough to understand what it can actually support.

I share step-by-step breakdowns of real analytics problems so you can reason clearly, write better queries, and communicate results with confidence.

WHAT YOU’LL FIND HERE


SQL

Readable, maintainable queries designed for real datasets, with definitions and edge cases included.

Python

Explore and understand the data, including validation checks, summaries, and visuals that support the story.

Business Thinking

Clear framing before code so assumptions are explicit and the analysis stays connected to the decision.

WHAT YOU WON’T FIND HERE


Machine Learning

No model-building tutorials. This site is about measurement and decision-ready analysis.

Advanced Statistics

No advanced statistics. Just enough to reason clearly about uncertainty and tradeoffs.

Pure Theory

No concepts for their own sake. If it is here, it shows up in a real dataset and question.

WHO THIS IS FOR


This site is for people who know SQL and Python syntax, but want a clearer workflow for real work. If you’ve ever thought, “I know the tools, but I’m not sure how to approach the question”, this is for you.

Aspiring business and data analysts who want a practical workflow.

Career switchers learning how real analytics problems get solved.
