DATA ANALYSIS:

Dog Bites

This project involved a comprehensive data analysis, including extensive data cleansing, processing, visualization, and a final presentation via Powerpoint. The task was to find information about dog bites in New York City. I did this by comparing this dataset with another set of dog licensing information to establish demographics about location and breed of dogs involved in bite reports.

The project comprised of massive datasets and involves a great deal of nuance. Without live presentation, some granular explanation may be lacking, but the slides are presented here as is and provide an example of my process for this analysis.
