about

Hello! Welcome to my website! My name is Sofia Chalkiadaki. Let's get to know each other.

I always thought my dream was to be in a chemisty lab, experimenting with different molecules and be the next breakthrough in Science. This dream goes well with my Master's degree in Drug Discovery & Development @ Imperial College London. I started my first job in an analytical lab where I would spend half of my time in the lab and the rest in front of the PC analysing data.

This is when I felt the spark; what if there was a way to make this analysis easier, more interesting and better-looking? So, I attended my first Python course online. I was mind blown with the possibilities. I continued learning SQL and heard that we had Microsoft Access at work. The transition was initiated! No more tens of pieces of paper on my desk. I could access every piece of information from my screen. It even helped the environment!

Since then, I haven't stopped! I, now, have hands-on experience in web scraping, data analysis, data validation, data mining and data visualisation. I write my programs in Python and use SQL to retrieve data. I present my findings in interactive dashboards I build with Python Dash-Plotly, Excel, VBA and Power BI. I am a strong storyteller able to communicate with stakeholders coming from both technical and non-technical backgrounds .

In a nutshell, I am a self-taught programmer, constantly trying to expand my horizons and broaden my skill set. There is yet more to learn, yet more problems to solve and yet more to build. I’m always happy to chat about coding and meet new people. If you’d like to contact me, drop me a line via Linkedin or Email.
