A data analysis externship with the Center for Improving Youth Justice, focused on analyzing program and incident data to surface patterns in youth outcomes and facility operations.
Developed a Python command-line application that analyzes text files and generates word-count and character-frequency reports. Applied file I/O, string manipulation, dictionaries, functions, and command-line argument handling to transform raw text into structured information

A data analysis externship with the Center for Improving Youth Justice, focused on analyzing program and incident data to surface patterns in youth outcomes and facility operations.
The externship worked with CIYJ's longitudinal dataset of surveys, incident reports, and demographic records to evaluate common assumptions in juvenile justice. The project defined analytical limits, selected suitable correlational approaches, and produced an initial conceptual framework for interpreting relationships in the data.
I produced a spreadsheet that cataloged every CIYJ file, counted rows, recorded each file's unit of analysis, listed IncidentReports tabs, and noted which files included inline codebooks.
I opened each CIYJ file, counted rows, recorded the unit of analysis per file, listed multi-sheet tabs for IncidentReports, and noted which files included an inline codebook. The submission produced a spreadsheet with these data exploration notes.
During Phase 1 I inspected YouthClimate and StaffClimate, recoded binary survey items, aggregated to facility-period, and joined files. I produced a merged dataset (163 facility-period rows) and a Phase 2 scatter plot showing a negative association between isolation rates and perceived rule…
