Applied Python & Data Science Expert w/ 5+ years experience

John L.

I am a business and technology-focused professional with deep expertise across quantitative and data-driven subject areas. I graduated from a top business school in the country (Bentley University) magna cum laude w/ a focus on financial markets and investing. As a self-taught developer in Python, I've developed proficiency in programming fundamentals, data structures, algorithms, and Object Oriented Programming (OOP). My technical, analytical, and business application skills have been honed through 5+ years of diverse experience in financial and data analytics, as well as, my self-directed learning in data science, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning through my recent graduation of UT Austin McCombs post-graduate program in AI/ML.
I've tutored students on an informal basis in the past, and I have a proven track record of helping students grasp the nuances of complex topics and subject matter using a combination of breaking down problems into smaller steps, and using examples for illustration. As a new tutor, I'm currently offering a complementary 30 minute first consultation for new students looking to learn more about me, and so I can learn more about your individual learning goals.

My approach also involves marrying theoretical with practical expertise, and explaining the 'why' and underlying logic behind the principles. When students intuitively understand and grasp the 'why' experience shows not only do they perform better on tests and exams in the short-run, but they also retain the knowledge better which is advantageous from a career perspective.
