Research / Projects

Most of my research and analytics projects are owned either by my employer or clients. While I cannot share too many details on the methods and data sets of said projects, I am happy to discuss the broad aspects, whether you are simply curious or would like to collaborate. If you are in the latter category, please contact me here.

I do work on individual and pro bono research studies and projects from time to time, along with other B2C, for-profit, and collaborative projects with SFK Inc. Below you will find the details of some, click on the image or title to view.

Please note that while I make every effort to provide data in its original form, some projects may have sensitive information (such as client names) changed or redacted based on standing agreements. These changes are unlikely to influence the substantive portion of the work.
