Coding for Statistics/Economics/Finance
Hey! I'm Chris, I'm 25, and I live in Ottawa. I am fluent in English and French. I have 3+ years of full time work experience at Statistics Canada, where I split time with both the Federal Research Data Center, and the Canadian Center for Data Development and Economic Research. I have a Masters degree in Financial Economics from Western University, a 169/169 GRE score, and I'm a level 3 CFA candidate.
I love working with data and am primarily looking to do some coding projects: webscraping, visualizations, analytics, merging, cleaning, etc. The more complex or finance-related, the better! R is my preferred language but I'm also strong in Python, VBA, SAS, C++, and JavaScript. I'm a great writer, and am happy to also produce any accompanying reports, analysis, or documentation.
I made this video for Upwork.com but I figure it is just as appropriate here:
