Hi, I’m Gregory Mikuro. I’m passionate about data and how it can make a real difference. I love asking questions and then using numbers to find answers. Whether I’m cleaning a messy spreadsheet or building a dashboard, I enjoy turning raw data into clear insights. For me, data isn’t just numbers on a screen; it’s a way to understand people, problems, and possibilities. Every dataset is an invitation to learn something new and to help someone solve a challenge.
A Project That Left an Impact
A few years ago, I worked with a small community clinic that struggled to predict medicine shortages. I gathered patient visit records and stock levels, then built a simple forecast model. That model showed when supplies would run low and which medicines were most at risk. Thanks to this work, the clinic could order stock in time and avoid gaps. Seeing nurses and pharmacists use my report to keep patients safe showed me the power of data to drive real change.
What Inspires Me
I’m inspired by stories hidden in data—how one chart can reveal a trend or show a problem before it grows. I enjoy finding patterns that help teams make better decisions. It could be spotting a slowdown in user sign-ups or uncovering where a process wastes time. When I see my analysis turn into an action—like changing a workflow or improving services—I feel motivated to tackle the next challenge.
The Process That Keeps Me Going
Solving data problems feels like a journey. I start with a question, explore the data, try different methods, and refine my approach. There are moments when nothing seems to work, but those are often followed by breakthroughs. I value each step—experimenting with code, testing models, and sharing results with colleagues. These small wins build up and push me forward, reminding me that persistence and curiosity are key.
Finding Inspiration in Everyday Life
Outside of work, I stay curious by observing simple things: a traffic flow in my neighborhood, trends in news headlines, or patterns in sports scores. I jot down questions when I notice something odd—a spike in visitors to a local shop or a change in weather patterns. Those everyday observations often spark ideas for projects I can explore later. For me, inspiration is everywhere if you pay attention. It keeps me excited about learning and ready to turn data into impact.
