Gustavo R Santos

Data Scientist

Data is changing the way we do business. In my 13+ years working in IT companies, I became experienced and skilled in processing large sets of data to bring up business insights. Transforming, cleaning and analyzing data is the best way to be ahead of the competition. So I have developed my ability to use data to tell stories that support business decisions. That experience led me to writing the book "Data Wrangling with R", with Packt Publishing. I am also experienced improving processes with Excel automation to speed up task completion and decrease errors.
