Hi! My name is Julia Sveen and I’m a senior set to graduate in Spring 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Information, Communication, and Technology from Florida State University, where I also plan to pursue my Master of Science in Information Technology!

With a strong foundation in data analysis, programming, information systems, and communication technologies, I’m passionate about using technology to drive innovation and solve complex problems. I am looking for full-time opportunities in data analysis in the Spring of 2027, after I finish up my Master's degree.

Beyond tech, you can often find me keeping up with Major League Baseball and FSU sports, listening to music, thrifting, or scouring the internet for new recipes.

Portfolio

Here are some projects I've worked on:

Attendance at Dodger Stadium Case Study

Attendance Case Study - Dodgers Stadium Analysis

As someone passionate about baseball, I conducted a data analysis project on attendance patterns at Dodgers Stadium from 2014 to 2022. My goal was to determine how factors like team performance, specific opponents, and seasonal trends impacted the percentage of stadium capacity filled. I was responsible for the entire analysis process, including data cleaning, merging datasets, and building statistical models in R. I developed multiple regression models to predict attendance trends and evaluated their accuracy using R-squared values, MAE, and RMSE. This project allowed me to apply my data analysis skills to a real-world scenario and provide insights that could help optimize attendance strategies.

Amazon Redesign Wireframe

Amazon Redesign Prototype

For this project, I redesigned the Amazon website with a focus on improving the user experience. I aimed to declutter the interface, simplify navigation, and introduce features that enhance usability. I incorporated elements like a more intuitive menu, voice search functionality, and AI-based product suggestions to make shopping more efficient. My role involved designing the prototype, ensuring interactive elements worked smoothly, and refining the overall structure to create a more seamless and user-friendly experience.

Personal Website/Portfolio

Portfolio Project

For this project, I built and hosted my personal website on GitHub Pages to showcase my work, skills, and projects. I designed the site using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, integrating JavaScript for translations and animations to enhance user interaction. My role involved structuring the site, implementing dynamic features, and managing version control through GitHub. This project helped me refine my web development skills while establishing an online presence to share my work.
