Work Experience

Data Analytics & Web Design Volunteer at Public Health - Seattle & King County
January 2018 – Present, Seattle, WA
I worked on the Community Health Indicators (CHI) project. I created Tableau visualizations based on user needs related to information organization and data literacy. The process involved data cleaning with R and user testing of the dashboards. I also worked on the Communities Count website with a team. In order to re-design the website, we used UX principles such as user interviews, card sorting, ideation, wire-framing and managing content on Squarespace.

Information Technology Intern at Kaiser Permanente Washington
June 2018 – August 2018, Renton, WA
Working as a part of the Care Delivery IT team, I conducted software integration testing for the 2017 EPIC software update. I also created spreadsheets and Visio process diagrams for the HIPAA compliance audit. I assisted my project manager with various project management tasks throughout the summer and had the opportunity to shadow her work.
