👋 My name is Leilane (@leilanefrc).

👩🏻‍💻 I am a data analyst with 7+ years of experience in using data, statistics and mathematical models to answer research questions.

💻 I am a self-taught programmer who enjoys using code to solve problems. I have experience using R, Python, SQL and MATLAB to work with data. I have also already used PHP, HTML, CSS and (a tiny bit of) C#. Currently, I have been learning JavaScript in my free time.

🔍 You can also find me on LinkedIn.

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young. — Henry Ford
