My Background
I hold a B.S. degree in Social Data Analytics from The Pennsylvania State University, where I developed expertise in Python, Java, SQL, RStudio, and Jupyter for data analysis. These tools have empowered me to tackle complex data challenges, transforming raw information into actionable insights.
Leading research teams in data-driven projects, I've explored complex relationships between variables, illuminating patterns and insights with the potential for real-world impact. Additionally, as a staff member at Sekwang Telecommunication, I played a crucial role in assessing an managing construction risks using GIS systems. I established analytical processes that proactively minimized construction risks, collaborated with project development teams. Leveraging spatial databases and GIS software, I executed comprehensive data analyses that elevated risk assessments, resulting in a tangible enhancement of project safety and a consistent reduction in accident rates.

Completed several projects related to societal issues or personal interests using Python, Java, SQL, RStudio, and Jupyter. A research project developed a theory for the relationship between government fragility and mortality by the death penalty statement, used a Jupyter to analyze linear relationships of the variables, and showed visualized graphs and insights of the result.
I studied Chinese and International business before transferring to Penn State. As an excellent student for three semesters at this university, I earned the highest level in the HSK test (level 6) since I started studying Chinese passionately.

I performed tasks related to assessing and managing construction risks using GIS systems. Notably, I dedicated significant efforts to establishing an analytical process for minimizing construction risks from the early project stages, working closely with the construction project development team. My effective use of spatial databases and GIS software allowed me to conduct data analysis, ultimately enhancing my risk assessment and project management skills. Through these efforts, I contributed significantly to improving project safety and consistently reducing accident rates.
I have experience in directly creating and editing YouTube videos for promoting the organization. I also took on the responsibility of adding Chinese subtitles to the content, expanding the international viewership of the videos. In addition, I managed video uploads, oversaw YouTube Studio, and provided insights and recommendations for the direction of future content creation by analyzing videos with high and low view counts.
