What I'm looking for

I am looking for a job that allows me to utilize my analytical and critical thinking skills.

My name is John and I am a veteran of the United States Navy. I served 6 years in the nuclear field where I learned all about nuclear power. In addition, I served on a fast attack submarine and had multiple voluntary roles during my service outside of power plant operations. I was the lead in maintaining and updating all personnel qualification records while updating all of the ship's engineering and technical manuals.

When I left the service, I wanted a change of pace. I decided to enroll at UNLV for a degree in business. I quickly discovered that I really enjoyed data analysis and learning about markets and participant behaviors. I graduated from UNLV in December 2023 with a degree in economics. In addition, I graduated with a minor in information systems.

I am always interested in learning more about data analytics. I believe that data analysis is a powerful aspect to understanding and efficiency.

I joined the United States Navy at 17 to challenge myself with some of the most difficult material the United States Armed Forces has to offer. While serving, I operated and maintained the nuclear and non-nuclear electrical systems onboard a submarine. This required a college-level understanding of nuclear physics, electrical theory, and thermodynamics.
