Spending time in Austin and getting a lay of the land brought about curiosity on city data and statistics. Coupled with a desire to channel creativity and my love for working with data, this project came about.

​

I discovered a public database containing several years of police reports filed with the Austin Police Department. As a way to challenge myself and further develop my data engineering and analytics skills, I built a web application from scratch to transform, visualize, and explore the data in a meaningful and engaging way. The project allowed me to work through the full data lifecycle, from data acquisition and transformation to interactive visualization and insight generation, while presenting the information in a format that is both impactful and easy to explore.
