Developer Advocate & Founder @ ML Data | Data Science & AI Content Creator

I didn't write my first line of code until I was 26. Now I get sponsored by companies like Anthropic, Amazon and IBM to create coding videos as a tech content creator.

My career path has been anything but linear - finance analyst to consultant to data scientist to full-time content creator. At each stop, I felt like I was starting over, but those diverse experiences became my superpower. My finance background taught me business fundamentals, consulting showed me how to solve complex problems, and data science gave me technical skills. 

When I combined all three and took the leap into content creation and developer advocacy, companies started paying attention.

Now I help others navigate their own career transitions by sharing what I've learned across industries and roles.

When I'm not creating content, you'll find me exploring running, playing pickleball or cuddling with my fur babies, Belle and Lola.

I'm always excited to connect with fellow career changers or anyone building something interesting. Feel free to reach out at megan@thedriveagency.co or send me a message here on LinkedIn 👋

IBM just announced they’re tripling entry-level hiring in the US this year.

I break down why this actually makes so much business sense, and why I think more companies are about to follow IBM’s lead in this video 👇

Do you think we’ll be seeing the comeback of entry-level tech jobs this year? 🤔

As a passionate Data Scientist, I thrive on empowering companies to make data-informed decisions that drive success. In my current role at Midland Industries, I lead the delivery of business intelligence solutions, including executive financial reporting, sales dashboards, and operational scorecards in Tableau. I also administer the Tableau environment, analyze ERP and CRM customer data in Python to uncover trends and growth opportunities, and partner with operations and leadership on initiatives to optimize labor, inventory, and profitability, while supporting ad-hoc analyses in a fast-paced manufacturing setting.

I founded Silvey Solutions to deliver actionable, data-driven insights that create positive change. My consulting portfolio includes prestigious organizations, including LinkedIn Learning, the United Nations, Emeritus, phData, O'Reilly, and BankOnIP. Additionally, I developed multiple LinkedIn Learning courses ranging from coding to mathematics content.

I hold a M.S. in Data Analytics from Kansas State University, where I honed my skills and gained invaluable industry experience. My professional journey includes analyzing e-commerce data as a data scientist at Pro Athlete to examining pharmaceutical claims data at SS&C Health. Internships at Westar Energy and the City of Olathe further enriched my data expertise.

My expertise spans a wide range of data science techniques, including data cleaning, data mining, and advanced data analysis. I excel in building machine learning algorithms and creating compelling data visualizations to tell insightful stories. I rely on SQL for data preparation and use Python and R for analysis and machine learning. My proficiency in Tableau, PowerBI, and Google Looker allows me to craft impactful dashboards, while tools like Microsoft Excel, MATLAB, and SPSS aid in solving complex data problems.

I earned a B.S. in Mathematics with a minor in Psychology from the University of Kansas in December 2018. During my time at KU, I was the President of the KU Math Club, Undergraduate Vice President for the KU Association for Women in Mathematics Chapter, and an active member of the KU SIAM Chapter. I also served as a research assistant for Dr. Yo Jackson, focusing on children's adaptation to stress and trauma.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I am dedicated to serving my community. I am an active board member for the Olathe Public Schools Foundation, volunteer and sponsor charity events, and built a foundation for the nonprofit Care Package Inbound.
