DAVID ROAT

Data Management and Analysis

End-To-End Data Solutions, Project Management, and Team Collaboration

I have been working with voter files since 2005. I manage across the full data lifecycle from ETL pipeline development to advanced analysis. I have a proven track record of creating support scores. I also have extensive field experience, so I can hear the needs of stakeholders and end users, and then translate to the engineering team.

What I Bring to Your Team

Project management, cross-team communication, and progress-to-goal tracking
ETL pipelines and CRM integration for multi-vendor datasets
Data analysis, visualization, and regression analysis expertise
GIS and geospatial analysis for location-based insights
Dashboard development with SQL/PHP for secure private implementations

I'm also experienced in building Gantt charts, creating process manuals, and tracking progress toward organizational goals. Most importantly, I understand the difference between correlation and causality. I dig deeper than surface-level patterns to find meaningful insights, whether that's creating precise target universes, developing predictive scores, or identifying the real drivers behind a trend.
