Hello a todas las personas, I'm Isaac Arroyo πŸ‡²πŸ‡½ πŸ‘‹

I do data analysis and visualization as a Data Analyst in N+ Focus, the investigative journalism unit of N+ (Televisa-Univision). I work at the intersection of numbers/math, shapes and colours.

If you want to see my projects, you can visit my Behance profile or look at my πŸ“Œ pinned projects.

Quick summary about my academic background

  • βš›οΈ I have a BSc. in Engineering Physics.
  • 🌳πŸ”₯🌳 My undergraduate thesis focused on exploring and visualizing wildfire records and environmental data from different sources (satellite imagery was one of them πŸ›°οΈ πŸ—ΊοΈ). Here are a Medium article I wrote and the GitHub repo of my undegrad thesis project.

My professional interests πŸ€“

Although my background is in physics, I aim to use my data analysis and visualization skills in other fields. For example, social sciences and human rights πŸ§‘β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘πŸ‘¬πŸ‘­, the arts 🎨, public policy πŸ›οΈ and the environment (hence my undergrad thesis) πŸŒ±πŸƒ.

My tech, data and math skills πŸ“

Due to my engineering degree, I have strong knowledge of math (i.e. statistics & linear algebra) and unsupervised learning (anomaly detection & pattern recognition ). I mostly do data analysis and visualization with Python and R (and soon, Observable Plot). Also, I know my way with design software (Adobe Illustrator) and other types of data visualization tools, such as Datawrapper and Flourish.

Other things about me ✨

  • 🎧 I love listening to Alessia Cara, Taylor Swift, The Warning, Last Dinner Party & Residente/Calle 13.
  • πŸŽ₯ "The secret life of Walter Mitty"Β is my favourite movie and the one that inspired and motivated me to learn photography.
  • 🎨 I love art, especially painting and architecture. I enjoy going to art exhibitions and learning about art history.
