Total streams reward artists for simply being around longer, so who's actually growing fastest? I analyzed Spotify's top 500 most-streamed artists (Kaggle, July 2026) entirely in Excel, building a career-adjusted 'Streams per Year' metric to measure real momentum instead of lifetime totals.
As an IT Product Management candidate, I am pursuing a B.S. in IT and an M.S. in IT Product Management at WGU, ready to drive innovation and deliver impactful solutions.
In enterprise tech sales, my favorite part was discovery: meeting with IT and security leaders to identify their real challenges and help them find solutions. This instinct fits well in product management. I've assessed a company's security using NIST CSF 2.0, tested survey designs for Beats by Dre, and created my own Spotify analytics dashboard. I hold CompTIA A+, ITIL 4, and Linux Essentials certifications, and I'm pursuing Security+, Network+, Cloud+, AWS Cloud Practitioner, CAL1 and PMI CAPM.

Be a junior security consultant. Find a company's weak spots, score them on NIST and create a deck for senior leaders.
Small companies often can't prove what they own, who has access, or whether their security policies are followed, and forgotten accounts and vendor logins become the way in. As a junior consultant for vCISO Services, I assessed a client's Claims Intake service to show leadership where their real risk was.
Built an asset inventory, ran public reconnaissance and website security testing, triaged vulnerabilities, reviewed security policies against actual practice, and analyzed an incident report. Scored the organization against NIST CSF 2.0 and delivered an evidence-based risk report and executive deck prioritizing the biggest gaps for senior leadership.
I scoped the engagement, built an asset inventory from two conflicting company records, and recorded the disagreements and evidence. I also answered Meridian’s questions and created Slide 1 showing engagement scope and findings.

Beats by Dre wanted to understand what actually drives people to buy wireless speakers. Good answers depend on good questions, so the research started with designing an unbiased consumer survey and then analyzing real consumer data to inform product and marketing decisions.
Left 10 peer-review comments on a draft survey, flagging overlapping age and price ranges, vague frequency scales, an incomplete rating scale, and questions assuming respondents already owned the product. Applied research frameworks and AI-assisted analysis to consumer data and turned findings into product and marketing recommendations. Earned the Extern Completion Award.

Cleaned and validated 500 rows (0 duplicates, 0 missing values, fixed a header error) and caught a data-source flaw: 79% of artists' Lead + Feature streams didn't add up to their totals. Built formula-driven summaries by genre, country, and decade, ran correlation analysis, and designed a one-page KPI dashboard with 6 KPI cards and 3 charts.
Streaming velocity accelerates by decade: 2020s debuts average ~2,694M streams/year vs. ~1,453M for 2010s debuts and under 300M for artists who debuted before 1990. Bad Bunny leads Johnny Cash ~17x on total streams but ~92x on streams per year. Takeaway: the right metric changes the story, and top-line totals can hide what's really driving growth.
