Pro Bono: IEEE Chicago Section Statistician - Part 3


This post is the third in a series on my pro bono efforts outside of the workplace as Statistician for the IEEE Chicago Section, a new position that I filled this past year after the membership development team realized that ongoing data analyses and reporting was needed around declining enrollment.

The bulk of my time spent on this work over the past year was fixing existing graphs that I had inherited, moving from Microsoft Excel to the R language, maintaining existing data sets, creating new data sets, and creating formal presentations that I started distributing on a monthly basis.

After creating re-runnable R scripts earlier this year for the monthly graphs that the team came to expect, my attention turned toward creation of new visualizations that seek to better understand the data, and I began to spend more time to communicate my analyses for the nonanalytical.
