Documenting my path from "SQL Data Analyst pursuing an Engineering Master's Degree" to "Data Scientist"
Since Memorial Day in the U.S. is the unofficial start of the summer season, I figured today would be a good time to launch the SUMMER OF DATA SCIENCE 2017!!!
The Summer of Data Science is a commitment to learn something this summer to enhance your data science skills, and to share what you learned.
I am collecting information about my “audiences” so I can improve my websites, podcast, and also formulate a plan for a Patreon campaign to generate funds for getting help and to free myself up to create more content. Please fill out the survey and share it with your friends and followers on social media! The… Continue reading Becoming a Data Scientist Survey

Data Science Learning Club Welcome Message
For anyone that hasn’t yet joined the Becoming a Data Scientist Podcast Data Science Learning Club, I thought I’d write up a summary of what we’ve been doing….
Note: The video is the interview only. The audio podcast has the intro, interview, and data science learning club activity explanation.
In Episode 2 of the Becoming a Data Scientist Podcast, we meet Safia Abdalla, who started programming and even exploring machine learning and natural language processing as a teenager, and is now a student at Northwestern University, a conference speaker and trainer, co-organizer of PyLadies Chicago, and a contributor to Project Jupyter.

More about the Data Science Learning Club:
I’m working on the last of my recording and editing for “Episode 0” of the new Becoming A Data Scientist Podcast, which I’m planning to launch tomorrow! I’ve already recorded the interviews for episodes 1-3, which will be airing over the next month or so – so exciting! The guests all had interesting and informative things to share, I believe you’ll like it a lot.
At the end of each podcast episode, I’ll be “assigning” a “Learning Activity” for the Data Science Learning Club.
