Data Analytics Challenge
I participated in the NBC Universal Data-Analytics challenge. The challenge that I chose to tackle was how classic media companies like NBC could capture Esports viewers. NBC provided me with large data samples such as viewer demographics for classic media companies as well as media focused more one Esports such as Twitch. This challenge was interesting to me as an MIS major because it was the first time I was able to analyze a real data set to solve a problem outside of a classroom. Through doing this project I learned a lot about different data analysis techniques such as utilizing pivot tables in excel and I also learned how to visualize that data to tell a story.
