Oladapo Salimonu

I am a recent graduate and former student-athlete at Norfolk State University. On December 7th, 2024 I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor's of Science in Business Intelligence and Data Analytics. In my time at Norfolk State, I excelled as a leader in my capacities as a student, a defensive back for the Varsity Spartans Football Team, Student Athlete Advisory Council Community Service Chair, and as an Associate Justice for our Student Government Association. I also work as a database manager for a driving school in Atlanta on a hybrid onsite and remote basis. As an office manager, I have authored an employee manual, managed customer disputes, trained new hires, and maintained company files and databases. Despite my heavy workload, I graduated with a 3.6 GPA and have taken courses such as Business Intelligence, Big Data & Data Visualizations, Decision Support and Data Mining, Corporate Finance and Operations management, which have given me a holistic understanding of business management and data analytics. I have honed my leadership skills as a member of the CLEAR Leadership Academy 2024 cohort, wherein I demonstrated my commitment to leadership, excellence, achievements and results. I have exercised my excellent communication skills as a student leader and advocate as Senior Associate Justice and by representing NSU at multiple events, including the 2024 Day on the Hill, 2024 White House Celebration of Black Men and the 2024 Black Student Athlete Summit. I am proficient in Microsoft Office, Python, R and SQL coding languages and I have real world experience working with data as a Defensive Analyst for the Varsity Spartans Football Team. I am an expert in data cleaning, managing, visualization and analysis. My attention to detail, critical thinking, leadership, communication and data science specialties make me an ideal candidate for any Data Analyst position.
