Okay, let’s tackle this. So Matthew has a strong skillset in data analysis, databases, and business intelligence, which are in demand. He also has a degree from a reputable university, Catholic University. Location is Seattle, WA, which is a hub for tech and finance. According to national averages, data analysts with similar skills and experience can charge around $100–$150 per hour. Considering his education and training, I estimate his hourly rate to be around $125, which is slightly below the average but still competitive.
