Bio
Michael Simcock
I have been working with Petra for several years and he has been an excellent addition to our team. He originally started out as a data analyst and has acquired additional data engineer skills which were critical to our team effort. He is definitely a team player and has worked energetically at keeping everyone involved and up-to-date on team communications. Petra has quickly come up to speed on SQL-based Postgres data architectures that we are developing for an AWS target architecture. Our team structure is remote-based and depends on highly skilled engineers to migrate a 25 year old IT architecture to a modern UI-JAVA based application and relational database architecture. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a data professional who will almost immediately became an asset to any project team.

To whom it may concern: I take great pleasure in writing this letter in support of one of the finest student that I ever worked with, and it is my great pleasure to recommend him. Petra mastered all the topics covered in our Data Science program and takes tremendous pride in his work and is a general pleasure to be around. Petra's work quality, mainly complex projects, was comprehensive and solid at all time. Petra is a leader, and also a team player. He kept on the lookout for his teammates and proactively contacted me and TA's to check whether there are additional problems to work on to expand his knowledge and skill set. Other students seemed to learn from his example. I have had numerous personal conversations with Petra during and after his time at Northwestern. Through our discussions I have come to know him as a warm and thoughtful person who genuinely cares for the people around him. I can see that he has given much thought into his choice of a career, and am certain that as a Data Scientist Instructor, he will serve his clients with dedication and structure his practice in a way that allows him to take genuine pride in his profession. Sincerely, Will Wright
