Resources I Actually Use
This is my personal stash of tools, courses, and learning spots—the ones that have actually helped me stay curious, grounded, and growing on the journey to becoming a data analyst.
Some are technical, some are mindset-based, and some are just cool corners of the internet I keep coming back to. I’ll keep adding more as I go.
Whether you’re studying alongside me or just wandering through, I hope you find something useful in here too.
