Everyone thinks when they get a job in data it'll be the most sexiest job ever full of so many intellectual smart things... 

like coding all day, using AI, and being super techy. 

Basically saving the world one query at a time!

But the reality is that data analytics is still a business job because data analysts are parts of businesses and corporations. 

So much of the day revolves around communication, catering to stakeholders, and driving insights that point to higher-level goals and KPIs.

Things that will make the execs happy and look good in front of the board are ultimately the most important tasks-- not the research and exploring you're excited to do with all of your pent-up curiosity. 

If you don't advocate for those tasks and get buy-in from leadership, they're likely a no-go.

Sometimes, it can be draining, but it makes the quiet days where you can explore data and have fun so much more appreciated. 

Is being a data analyst what you expected or not?

A popular (male) data influencer has been stealing content and ideas from me and Dawn Choo  

And I'm not very happy about it. 

They copied my LinkedIn cover photo many months ago stealing my original design of "select * from jess_ramos" pointing to my cover photo. 

I didn't say anything because it's the highest form of flattery and it's not worth my time.

But then a week ago, they copied Dawn's instagram video *word for word* stealing the exact concept, text, and script. 

I commented calling them out and they DMed me saying they "tagged Dawn in the comments giving her credit." 

When I said that still doesn't make it okay to copy people, they changed their whole story and said they "filmed it weeks before and Dawn coincidentally came up with the EXACT same idea” copying them.

And they sent a fool proof screenshot with a timestamp they edited in their phone LOL

How about we stop copying other creators and stealing ideas from women??

And even worse, lying about it?

People talk. Is that really how you want your reputation to be?

Top 5 SQL Data Cleaning Functions

Learning how to set corporate boundaries professionally is truly an art. If you don't learn this... you'll likely be pushed around and taken advantage of. 

These are boundaries that I set for myself (and have accidentally broken in the past!):

1. Do not respond to any notifications or messages outside of your working hours. You never want to set the precedent and expectations that you will— because then if you ever don’t, your manager will feel let down and disappointed in you.

2. Overcommunicate and manage up. If your manager wants to be super hands on, keep them super updated with frequent status updates and decisions. That way they can weigh in if they want to and will build trust in you. And you can keep them from pestering you daily with updates.

3. Take time for yourself and enjoy your personal life (& PTO) GUILT FREE. Just because they have no hobbies doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your life. You shouldn't feel guilty for using your benefits and not working past your contracted hours.

Have you had a manager like this? Are you healing from one like this?

Is data science still the sexiest job of the 21st century?

It’s changed a lot over the years: 

↳ 2012: DS was deemed as the sexiest job of the 21st century— and it was. It required a phd and deep statistical modeling knowledge resulting in very high salaries and demand.  

↳ 2021: This was the rise of bootcamps that over promised and underdelivered and the market became more saturated. However, tech companies were hiring so much, no one really noticed the oversaturation and many people broke in. 

↳ 2026: Hiring has slowed down greatly and so has the demand to become a data scientist. Everything has been in a lull feeling slow, and people are having to adapt their skills to include AI & agents to get jobs. 

The field isn’t dying, it’s just adapting and reshaping into new kinds of roles. 

Skills and tools are changing (as always), and you should only go into a data role if you actually enjoy it!

I think it’s worth it, what about you?

Debugging for half an hour to just find out there is a typo in a field name.

If you haven't experienced this then you're probably not working in data.

Not the worst nightmare compared to dropping a prod database though 😂

When I was still in college, I was working on something on my laptop and my wife asked a math question. 

I just went to the command line/terminal on my mac, opened a python session, and started typing math formulas. 

And she told me "what a nerd".

I didn't know I was a nerd. I still don't think I'm a nerd, am I?  

#life #data

I’m working on a project with ducklake, sqlmesh, and dlt…

So awesome you can pick open source tools and build a working data stack.

I’m still finishing up my write up but it’s coming soon!
