Sorry, but the page you were trying to view does not exist.
I love data–exploring, wrangling, analyzing and visualizing it. I recently earned my M.S. in Advanced Data Analytics, where I gained hands-on experience in statistical analysis with Python and Excel, building interactive data visualizations in Tableau and Plotly, and utilizing and evaluating machine learning models (linear and logistic regression, decision trees, random forests) in Jupyter Notebooks and Google Colab.
Along with my skills in data analysis, I’m also a Philosophy major, an English Language Arts educator (M.Ed. - Curriculum and Instruction) and a state certified Master Technology Teacher. I bring educational experience in instructional leadership (Grade Team Leader, Teacher Manager, Instructional Coach), student success and support (Critical Student Intervention Coordinator, Individualized Learning Specialist, Classroom Teacher), and school-wide leadership (Principal-in-Residence, Dean of Instruction). This extensive background (25+ years) in K-12 education helps me bring a unique perspective to data exploration and analysis.

Make any link standout more when applying the .btn class.
Watch out! You can also add notices by appending {: .notice} to a paragraph.
This is an example of a link.
The abbreviation CSS stands for “Cascading Style Sheets”.
“Code is poetry.” —Automattic
You will learn later on in these tests that word-wrap: break-word; will be your best friend.
This tag will let you strikeout text.
The emphasize tag should italicize text.
This tag should denote inserted text.
This scarcely known tag emulates keyboard text, which is usually styled like the <code> tag.
This tag styles large blocks of code.
.post-title {
margin: 0 0 5px;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 38px;
line-height: 1.2;
and here's a line of some really, really, really, really long text, just to see how the PRE tag handles it and to find out how it overflows;
}
Developers, developers, developers…
–Steve Ballmer
This tag shows bold text.
Getting our science styling on with H2O, which should push the “2” down.
Still sticking with science and Isaac Newton’s E = MC2, which should lift the 2 up.
This allows you to denote variables.

Markdown
{% include toc %} ## Locations of key files/directories * Basic config options: _config.yml * Top navigation bar config: _data/navigation.yml * Single pages: _pages/ * Collections of pages are .md or .html files in: * _publications/ * _portfolio/ (Data Projects) * _posts/ * _teaching/ * _talks/ * Footer: _includes/footer.html * Static files (like PDFs): /files/ * Profile image (can set in _config.yml): images/profile.png ## Tips and hints * Name a file ".md" to have it render in markdown, name it ".html" to render in HTML. * Go to the [commit list](https://github.com/academicpages/academicpages.github.io/commits/master) (on your repo) to find the last version GitHub built with Jekyll. * Green check: successful build * Orange circle: building * Red X: error * No icon: not built * Academic Pages uses [Jekyll Kramdown](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/configuration/markdown/), GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) parser, which is similar to the version of Markdown used on GitHub, but may have some minor differences. * Some of emoji supported on GitHub should be supposed via the [Jemoji](https://github.com/jekyll/jemoji) plugin :computer:. * The best list of the supported emoji can be found in the [Emojis for Jekyll via Jemoji](https://www.fabriziomusacchio.com/blog/2021-08-16-emojis_for_Jekyll/#computer) blog post. * While GitHub Pages prevents server side code from running, client-side scripts are supported. * This means that Google Analytics is supported, and [the wiki](https://github.com/academicpages/academicpages.github.io/wiki/Adding-Google-Analytics) should contain the most up-to-date information on getting it working. * Your CV can be written using either Markdown ([preview](https://academicpages.github.io/cv/)) or generated via JSON ([preview](https://academicpages.github.io/cv-json/)) and the layouts are slightly different. You can update the path to the one being used in `_data/navigation.yml` with the JSON formatted CV being hidden by default. * The [Liquid syntax guide](https://shopify.github.io/liquid/tags/control-flow/) is a useful guide for those that want to add functionality to the template or to become contributors to the [template on GitHub](https://github.com/academicpages/academicpages.github.io). ## MathJax Support for MathJax (version 3.* via [jsDelivr](https://www.jsdelivr.com/), [documentation](https://docs.mathjax.org/en/latest/)) is included in the template: $$ \displaylines{ \nabla \cdot E= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0} \\\ \nabla \cdot B=0 \\\ \nabla \times E= -\partial_tB \\\ \nabla \times B = \mu_0 \left(J + \varepsilon_0 \partial_t E \right) } $$ The default delimiters of `$$...$$` and `\\[...\\]` are supported for displayed mathematics, while `\\(...\\)` should be used for in-line mathematics (ex., \\(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\)) **Note** that since Academic Pages uses Markdown which cases some interference with MathJax and LaTeX for escaping characters and new lines, although [some workarounds exist](https://math.codidact.com/posts/278763/278772#answer-278772). In some cases, such as when you are including MathJax in a `citation` field for publications, it may be necessary to use `\(...\)` for inline delineation. ## Mermaid diagrams Academic Pages includes support for [Mermaid diagrams](https://mermaid.js.org/) (version 11.* via [jsDelivr](https://www.jsdelivr.com/)) and in addition to their [tutorials](https://mermaid.js.org/ecosystem/tutorials.html) and [GitHub documentation](https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid) the basic syntax is as follows: ```markdown ```mermaid graph LR A-->B ``` ``` Which produces the following plot with the [default theme](https://mermaid.js.org/config/theming.html) applied: ```mermaid graph LR A-->B ``` While a more advanced plot with the `forest` theme applied looks like the following: ```mermaid --- config: theme: 'forest' --- graph TD; A-->B; A-->C; B-->D; C-->D; ``` ## Plotly Academic Pages includes support for Plotly diagrams via a hook in the Markdown code elements, although those that are comfortable with HTML and JavaScript can also access it [via those routes](https://plotly.com/javascript/getting-started/). In order to render a Plotly plot via Markdown the relevant plot data need to be added as follows: ```markdown ```plotly { "data": [ { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4], "y": [10, 15, 13, 17], "type": "scatter" }, { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4], "y": [16, 5, 11, 9], "type": "scatter" } ] } ``` ``` **Important!** Since the data is parsed as JSON *all* of the keys will need to be quoted for the plot to render. The use of a tool like [JSONLint](https://jsonlint.com/) to check syntax is highly recommended. {: .notice} Which produces the following: ```plotly { "data": [ { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4], "y": [10, 15, 13, 17], "type": "scatter" }, { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4], "y": [16, 5, 11, 9], "type": "scatter" } ] } ``` Essentially what is taking place is that the [Plotly attributes](https://plotly.com/javascript/reference/index/) are being taken from the code block as JSON data, parsed, and passed to Plotly along with a theme that matches the current site theme (i.e., a light theme, or a dark theme). This allows all plots that can be described via the `data` attribute to rendered with some limitations for the theme of the plot. ```plotly { "data": [ { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], "y": [1, 6, 3, 6, 1], "mode": "markers", "type": "scatter", "name": "Team A", "text": ["A-1", "A-2", "A-3", "A-4", "A-5"], "marker": { "size": 12 } }, { "x": [1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5], "y": [4, 1, 7, 1, 4], "mode": "markers", "type": "scatter", "name": "Team B", "text": ["B-a", "B-b", "B-c", "B-d", "B-e"], "marker": { "size": 12 } } ], "layout": { "xaxis": { "range": [ 0.75, 5.25 ] }, "yaxis": { "range": [0, 8] }, "title": {"text": "Data Labels Hover"} } } ``` ```plotly { "data": [{ "x": [1, 2, 3], "y": [4, 5, 6], "type": "scatter" }, { "x": [20, 30, 40], "y": [50, 60, 70], "xaxis": "x2", "yaxis": "y2", "type": "scatter" }], "layout": { "grid": { "rows": 1, "columns": 2, "pattern": "independent" }, "title": { "text": "Simple Subplot" } } } ``` ```plotly { "data": [{ "z": [[10, 10.625, 12.5, 15.625, 20], [5.625, 6.25, 8.125, 11.25, 15.625], [2.5, 3.125, 5.0, 8.125, 12.5], [0.625, 1.25, 3.125, 6.25, 10.625], [0, 0.625, 2.5, 5.625, 10]], "type": "contour" }], "layout": { "title": { "text": "Basic Contour Plot" } } } ``` ## Markdown guide Academic Pages uses [kramdown](https://kramdown.gettalong.org/index.html) for Markdown rendering, which has some differences from other Markdown implementations such as GitHub's. In addition to this guide, please see the [kramdown Syntax page](https://kramdown.gettalong.org/syntax.html) for full documentation. ### Header three #### Header four ##### Header five ###### Header six ## Blockquotes Single line blockquote: > Quotes are cool. ## Tables ### Table 1 | Entry | Item | | | -------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | [John Doe](#) | 2016 | Description of the item in the list | | [Jane Doe](#) | 2019 | Description of the item in the list | | [Doe Doe](#) | 2022 | Description of the item in the list | ### Table 2 | Header1 | Header2 | Header3 | |:--------|:-------:|--------:| | cell1 | cell2 | cell3 | | cell4 | ce ll5 | cell6 | |-----------------------------| | cell1 | cell2 | cell3 | | cell4 | cell5 | cell6 | |=============================| | Foot1 | Foot2 | Foot3 | ## Definition Lists Definition List Title : Definition list division.

Your CV can be written using either Markdown (preview) or generated via JSON (preview) and the layouts are slightly different. You can update the path to the one being used in _data/navigation.yml with the JSON formatted CV being hidden by default.
Support for MathJax (version 3.* via jsDelivr, documentation) is included in the template:
\[\displaylines{ \nabla \cdot E= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0} \\\ \nabla \cdot B=0 \\\ \nabla \times E= -\partial_tB \\\ \nabla \times B = \mu_0 \left(J + \varepsilon_0 \partial_t E \right) }\]The default delimiters of $$...$$ and \\[...\\] are supported for displayed mathematics, while \\(...\\) should be used for in-line mathematics (ex., \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\))
Note that since Academic Pages uses Markdown which cases some interference with MathJax and LaTeX for escaping characters and new lines, although some workarounds exist. In some cases, such as when you are including MathJax in a citation field for publications, it may be necessary to use \(...\) for inline delineation.
Academic Pages includes support for Mermaid diagrams (version 11.* via jsDelivr) and in addition to their tutorials and GitHub documentation the basic syntax is as follows:
```mermaid
graph LR
A-->B
```
Which produces the following plot with the default theme applied:
graph LR
A-->B
While a more advanced plot with the forest theme applied looks like the following:
---
config:
theme: 'forest'
---
graph TD;
A-->B;
A-->C;
B-->D;
C-->D;
Academic Pages includes support for Plotly diagrams via a hook in the Markdown code elements, although those that are comfortable with HTML and JavaScript can also access it via those routes.
In order to render a Plotly plot via Markdown the relevant plot data need to be added as follows:
```plotly
{
"data": [
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [10, 15, 13, 17],
"type": "scatter"
},
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [16, 5, 11, 9],
"type": "scatter"
}
]
}
```
Important! Since the data is parsed as JSON all of the keys will need to be quoted for the plot to render. The use of a tool like JSONLint to check syntax is highly recommended.
Which produces the following:
{
"data": [
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [10, 15, 13, 17],
"type": "scatter"
},
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [16, 5, 11, 9],
"type": "scatter"
}
]
}
Essentially what is taking place is that the Plotly attributes are being taken from the code block as JSON data, parsed, and passed to Plotly along with a theme that matches the current site theme (i.e., a light theme, or a dark theme). This allows all plots that can be described via the data attribute to rendered with some limitations for the theme of the plot.

Basic notices or call-outs are supported using the following syntax:
**Watch out!** You can also add notices by appending `{: .notice}` to the line following paragraph.
{: .notice}
which wil render as:
Watch out! You can also add notices by appending {: .notice} to the line following paragraph.
Footnotes can be useful for clarifying points in the text, or citing information.1 Markdown support numeric footnotes, as well as text as long as the values are unique.2
This is the regular text.[^1] This is more regular text.[^note]
[^1]: This is the footnote itself.
[^note]: This is another footnote.

You will learn later on in these tests that word-wrap: break-word; will be your best friend.
You can also write larger blocks of code with syntax highlighting supported for some languages, such as Python:
print('Hello World!')
or R:
print("Hello World!", quote = FALSE)
The HTML <details> tag works well with Markdown and allows you to include collapsible sections, see W3Schools for more information on how to use the tag.
The source code:
<details>
<summary>Collapsed by default</summary>
This section was collapsed by default!
</details>
Or, you can leave a section open by default by including the open attribute in the tag:
The emphasize tag should italicize text.
This tag should denote inserted text.
This scarcely known tag emulates keyboard text, which is usually styled like the <code> tag.
This tag styles large blocks of code.

I love data–exploring, wrangling, analyzing and visualizing it. I recently earned my M.S. in Advanced Data Analytics, where I gained hands-on experience in statistical analysis with Python and Excel, building interactive data visualizations in Tableau and Plotly, and utilizing and evaluating machine learning models (linear and logistic regression, decision trees, random forests) in Jupyter Notebooks and Google Colab.
Along with my skills in data analysis, I’m also a Philosophy major, an English Language Arts educator (M.Ed. - Curriculum and Instruction) and a state certified Master Technology Teacher. I bring educational experience in instructional leadership (Grade Team Leader, Teacher Manager, Instructional Coach), student success and support (Critical Student Intervention Coordinator, Individualized Learning Specialist, Classroom Teacher), and school-wide leadership (Principal-in-Residence, Dean of Instruction). This extensive background (25+ years) in K-12 education helps me bring a unique perspective to data exploration and analysis.

This allows all plots that can be described via the `data` attribute to rendered with some limitations for the theme of the plot. ```plotly { "data": [ { "x": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], "y": [1, 6, 3, 6, 1], "mode": "markers", "type": "scatter", "name": "Team A", "text": ["A-1", "A-2", "A-3", "A-4", "A-5"], "marker": { "size": 12 } }, { "x": [1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5], "y": [4, 1, 7, 1, 4], "mode": "markers", "type": "scatter", "name": "Team B", "text": ["B-a", "B-b", "B-c", "B-d", "B-e"], "marker": { "size": 12 } } ], "layout": { "xaxis": { "range": [ 0.75, 5.25 ] }, "yaxis": { "range": [0, 8] }, "title": {"text": "Data Labels Hover"} } } ``` ```plotly { "data": [{ "x": [1, 2, 3], "y": [4, 5, 6], "type": "scatter" }, { "x": [20, 30, 40], "y": [50, 60, 70], "xaxis": "x2", "yaxis": "y2", "type": "scatter" }], "layout": { "grid": { "rows": 1, "columns": 2, "pattern": "independent" }, "title": { "text": "Simple Subplot" } } } ``` ```plotly { "data": [{ "z": [[10, 10.625, 12.5, 15.625, 20], [5.625, 6.25, 8.125, 11.25, 15.625], [2.5, 3.125, 5.0, 8.125, 12.5], [0.625, 1.25, 3.125, 6.25, 10.625], [0, 0.625, 2.5, 5.625, 10]], "type": "contour" }], "layout": { "title": { "text": "Basic Contour Plot" } } } ``` ## Markdown guide Academic Pages uses [kramdown](https://kramdown.gettalong.org/index.html) for Markdown rendering, which has some differences from other Markdown implementations such as GitHub's.

Your CV can be written using either Markdown (preview) or generated via JSON (preview) and the layouts are slightly different. You can update the path to the one being used in _data/navigation.yml with the JSON formatted CV being hidden by default.
Support for MathJax (version 3.* via jsDelivr, documentation) is included in the template:
\[\displaylines{ \nabla \cdot E= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0} \\\ \nabla \cdot B=0 \\\ \nabla \times E= -\partial_tB \\\ \nabla \times B = \mu_0 \left(J + \varepsilon_0 \partial_t E \right) }\]The default delimiters of $$...$$ and \\[...\\] are supported for displayed mathematics, while \\(...\\) should be used for in-line mathematics (ex., \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\))
Note that since Academic Pages uses Markdown which cases some interference with MathJax and LaTeX for escaping characters and new lines, although some workarounds exist. In some cases, such as when you are including MathJax in a citation field for publications, it may be necessary to use \(...\) for inline delineation.
Academic Pages includes support for Mermaid diagrams (version 11.* via jsDelivr) and in addition to their tutorials and GitHub documentation the basic syntax is as follows:
```mermaid
graph LR
A-->B
```
Which produces the following plot with the default theme applied:
graph LR
A-->B
While a more advanced plot with the forest theme applied looks like the following:
---
config:
theme: 'forest'
---
graph TD;
A-->B;
A-->C;
B-->D;
C-->D;
Academic Pages includes support for Plotly diagrams via a hook in the Markdown code elements, although those that are comfortable with HTML and JavaScript can also access it via those routes.
In order to render a Plotly plot via Markdown the relevant plot data need to be added as follows:
```plotly
{
"data": [
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [10, 15, 13, 17],
"type": "scatter"
},
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [16, 5, 11, 9],
"type": "scatter"
}
]
}
```
Important! Since the data is parsed as JSON all of the keys will need to be quoted for the plot to render. The use of a tool like JSONLint to check syntax is highly recommended.
Which produces the following:
{
"data": [
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [10, 15, 13, 17],
"type": "scatter"
},
{
"x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
"y": [16, 5, 11, 9],
"type": "scatter"
}
]
}
Essentially what is taking place is that the Plotly attributes are being taken from the code block as JSON data, parsed, and passed to Plotly along with a theme that matches the current site theme (i.e., a light theme, or a dark theme). This allows all plots that can be described via the data attribute to rendered with some limitations for the theme of the plot.

Make any link standout more when applying the .btn class.
Basic notices or call-outs are supported using the following syntax:
**Watch out!** You can also add notices by appending `{: .notice}` to the line following paragraph.
{: .notice}
which wil render as:
Watch out! You can also add notices by appending {: .notice} to the line following paragraph.
Footnotes can be useful for clarifying points in the text, or citing information.1 Markdown support numeric footnotes, as well as text as long as the values are unique.2
This is the regular text.[^1] This is more regular text.[^note]
[^1]: This is the footnote itself.
[^note]: This is another footnote.
This is an example of a link.

You will learn later on in these tests that word-wrap: break-word; will be your best friend.
You can also write larger blocks of code with syntax highlighting supported for some languages, such as Python:
print('Hello World!')
or R:
print("Hello World!", quote = FALSE)
The HTML <details> tag works well with Markdown and allows you to include collapsible sections, see W3Schools for more information on how to use the tag.
The source code:
<details>
<summary>Collapsed by default</summary>
This section was collapsed by default!
</details>
Or, you can leave a section open by default by including the open attribute in the tag:
The emphasize tag should italicize text.
This tag should denote inserted text.
This scarcely known tag emulates keyboard text, which is usually styled like the <code> tag.
This tag styles large blocks of code.

For my final capstone project (M.S. Advanced Data Analytics), I analyzed Fall 2023 U.S. college enrollment data (115K records, 5,900+ institutions) to uncover demographic patterns and predict graduate enrollment.

Demographic Factors and College Completion
Tools:Python (pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib), Jupyter Notebook
This project analyzed 2022–2023 college degree completions across 16,000+ U.S. institutions** to uncover the strongest demographic predictors of success.
Key Findings:
I recently completed the Data Visualization and Communication course and utilized spreadsheets, Python and Plotly to explore and analyze the 2019 AustinISD TEA accountability ratings as my final project!
An analysis of the AustinISD Texas Education Agency accountability statewide ratings for 2019.

Course Description: Introduces principles and techniques for data visualization for creating meaningful displays of quantitative and qualitative data to facilitate decision-making. Emphasis is placed on the identification of patterns, trends and differences among data sets.
TOOLS: Excel, PowerBI, Tableau, Python (MatPlotLib, Seaborn, Plotly)
SKILLS: Graphic design principles - Color, Text, Interaction, Perception, Exploratory Data Analysis, data visualization techniques from charts to dashboards
As my final project for the Data Analysis and Knowledge Discovery course, I created a side-by-side comparison tool to explore the 2019 ratings of any two schools or districts in Texas.
Originally created using Excel using advanced look up functions and formulas, it has been transferred to Google sheets. Make a copy to interact and utilize it. My plan is to make an improved, web based version of this tool.
Course Description: Introduction to data analysis, data mining, text mining and knowledge discovery principles, concepts, theories and practices. Designed for the aspiring or practicing information professional and covers the basics of working with data from a hands-on and practical perspective.
TOOLS: Excel, RapidMiner
SKILLS: Spreadsheet Modeling Basics - Lookup, Index, Match Functions, Pivot Tables, Array Formulas, Charts and Dashboards Data Mining Basics - Data Prep, Correlation Methods, Association Rules, K-Means Clustering, Discriminant Analysis, k-nearest neighbors, Naive Bayes, Text Mining, Decision Trees, Neural Networks
After completing my first two Information Science courses along with a Crash Course in Data Science from John Hopkins University, I decided to take two data analytics related courses. Now, after completing these two courses–Data Analysis and Knowledge Discovery and Data Visualization and Communication I have decided to end my brief journey in the Information Science graduate program to pursue a Master of Science in Advanced Data Analytics. A new journey begins!
Completed the IBM Python for Data Science and AI course!

Explored and worked with: Python programming basics (syntax, data types, expressions, variables, string operations, data structures, conditions, loops, functions, objects, classes). Python libraries: Pandas and Numpy using Jupyter Notebooks. Accessed and extracted web-based data by working with REST APIs using requests and performing web scraping with BeautifulSoup.
