Hi, I'm Michael Nocito

Data analyst in Glassboro, NJ. Eight years as an implementation analyst — migrating enterprise contract data, running projects end to end, and building processes from scratch as a small company scaled. Now focused on data analysis: SQL, Python, Excel, and turning messy data into a clear answer.

Analysis & Portfolio

A hands-on analysis of why telecom customers leave and which signals predict churn early enough to act on — 7,043 customers, cleaned and explored in Python/pandas. Walks from raw data through cleaning and feature engineering to plain-English findings on contract type, tenure, charges, and add-on services.

A free five-module prep suite covering every tool interviewers test: SQL, Excel, Python, Tableau, and Statistics. Each module has 12 lessons with read-it-aloud code breakdowns, drills, flashcards, and a skill readiness score — in real in-browser environments (live SQLite, Pyodide terminal, Chart.js). No install, no login.

A day-in-the-life simulation: you inherit a drive of cursed spreadsheets and learn the real habits of a working analyst by de-cursing them — reading the data, fixing type and consistency problems, and leaving every file better than you found it. A Tableau version teaches the same skills for dashboards.

A hiring tool that lets a manager watch a candidate do real Excel work on a video call instead of a cheatable take-home. Real grid + formula engine, automatic grading that tells a computed formula from a hardcoded value, and a sealed, tamper-evident result.

Tools & Learning Games

  • SQL Quest — a tower-defense game where real SQL queries control your turret; 23 waves from SELECT to GROUP BY. Live SQLite in the browser. → sql-quest
  • NEXUS — a desktop game where you uncover corporate fraud by writing real SQL against a live database. → nexus-sql-mystery
  • RecordForge — Windows app + Python/pip package that generates realistic fictional test files (PDF, Word, Excel, HTML) for QA, demos, and ETL testing. → recordforge
  • Spreadsheet Cleaner — a guided beginner Python project: build a working spreadsheet auditing and cleaning tool, layer by layer. → spreadsheet-cleaner

Background

  • 8 years as an implementation analyst — enterprise contract data migration, end-to-end project ownership
  • Comfortable with SQL, Python, Excel, and the messy reality of data that doesn't behave
  • Building tools and learning resources that prioritize clarity over cleverness

I also draw charcoal portraits — mostly dogs, occasionally cats.
