Question 20 of 30

What is your biggest accomplishment to date?

"Winning a Kaggle competition. So as you can see on my resume, I majored in business so my schooling wasn't really focused on computers or data per se. When I came out of college, I worked in business development, and although I enjoyed certain aspects of it, I felt drawn to data. In my off-hours, I would track different sports and wellness stats in Excel for fun. Eventually, I discovered a website called Kaggle and started competing in their online data analyst competitions. Not long ago, I won my first competition, and I knew I needed to change the direction of my career. I have continued to build my data skills through online courses and competitions."
