ABOUT ME

A7R05176.jpg

My name is Erick Phasy, born and raised in Minnesota, embodying that famous Minnesota Nice while proudly holding onto my Lao heritage since my family settled here in the 1980s. For the past seven years, I've owned and operated my own salon suite as a barber, focusing on creating relaxing experiences for my clients. Alongside this, I've explored the creative realm of technology as a freelance UX designer.

​

Transitioning into data analysis feels like a natural progression. Just as I've personalized experiences for salon clients through UX design, I now acknowledge how data can optimize operations and enhance customer satisfaction in my business. Mathematical thinking and data-driven decision-making are foundational to my approach, using insights to interpret information for better business and healthcare choices.

​

My ambition now is to fully engage in the role of a data analyst, leveraging my creative background, decision-making, and tech knowledge to contribute meaningfully to a dynamic team. I'm eager to apply my skills and energy to this new endeavor.

WHAT I DO WHEN I'M NOT WORKING

Art has always been a big passion of mine, sparked during my time working at a tattoo shop where I admired the careful creativity in each tattoo. This experience sharpened my eye for detail and appreciation for artistic expression—skills that are valuable in data analysis where paying close attention to details and finding creative solutions are essential. These skills are particularly useful in tasks like designing and creating dashboards, where clear visuals and innovative solutions can effectively communicate complex data insights.​

​

Outside of work, my passion for exploring diverse cultures, attending art exhibits, and concerts sharpens my ability to spot patterns—a crucial skill for interpreting data effectively. I also love visiting different cities and countries, and immersing myself in various music genres like hip-hop, rap, hyper pop, metal, punk, pop, and Korean pop. These experiences expand my perspective and ignite my creativity, both essential for making informed decisions as a data analyst.
