Welcome to My Portfolio Website

Hi, I’m Colin—a data-driven problem solver with a passion for analytics, technology, and optimization. With a background in Data Analytics, Economics, and Accounting, I thrive at the intersection of data, business, and technology, turning complex information into actionable insights and strategic decision-making tools.

Currently, I work at Puget Sound Energy (PSE) as a Business Support Analyst, where I bridge the gap between data, business needs, and technology. Leveraging the full Microsoft suite, Power BI, Power Query, and Salesforce administration, I develop data models, insightful dashboards, and process automation solutions that improve decision-making and enhance operational efficiency. Whether it’s improving data integrity, refining reporting frameworks, or identifying trends, I enjoy translating raw data into meaningful strategies that drive impact.

Beyond my professional role, I’m gearing up to pursue an MS in Applied Economics & Predictive Analytics, with a keen focus on time series modeling and energy trading. This aligns with my long-term goal of transitioning into energy trading, where I can combine my analytical expertise, predictive modeling skills, and business acumen to optimize market strategies and risk assessments.

I’m also a technology enthusiast who enjoys building tools and infrastructure that make workflows faster, easier, and more accurate. My homelab, themed around Norse mythology, reflects my passion for networking, automation, and security. I self-host a Docker-powered environment with reverse proxies, VLAN-segmented traffic, and VPN, ensuring a balance between accessibility and robust security.

Outside of my professional and technical interests, I find joy in woodworking, vegetable gardening, and spending time with my two small children. Whether I’m building something in the garage, tending to the garden, or exploring the world with my kids, I appreciate the balance between problem-solving in the digital world and creating tangible things in the real world.

Whether it’s streamlining business processes, architecting secure networks, or developing predictive models, I bring a detail-oriented mindset, a strong analytical foundation, and a drive for continuous improvement.

Thanks for stopping by—explore my work, and let’s connect!
