Tabitha Johnson
@tabithajohnson
Data Analyst and machine learning research assistant focused on accurate, privacy-first insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Analyst currently helping applicants navigate online tools and verifying documents for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation in Houston. I also work as a Machine Learning Research Assistant at Connexus Resource Group, where I’m developing a machine learning module for over-the-counter benefits. I enter and verify data accurately, maintain data integrity, and follow established protocols to protect the confidentiality and security of sensitive information.
In my work, I combine strong analysis with operational discipline—creating and updating spreadsheets with large volumes of data, using advanced Excel functions like VLOOKUP and PivotTables, collaborating to resolve discrepancies, and training new employees on accurate data entry procedures. Before transitioning further into data and research, I built people-focused experience as a Customer Service Agent and call center Team Lead, and I developed healthcare workflow skills as a Medical Assistant with insurance verification, prior approvals, authorizations, and the claims process (including CPT coding and accounts receivable). I’m also a Psychology (Bachelor’s) graduate and have completed suicide awareness and suicide prevention-related certifications, which keeps my approach grounded in empathy, confidentiality, and peer support.
