Thomas Neitmann has helped hundreds of your peers to take this step and now offers his expertise for you.

Thomas is an R enthusiast working as a Statistical Programmer with emphasis on R. His R journey began in 2014 when a coworker told him to run an R script to “analyze some data”. Having never programmed before at that time, he was overwhelmed. But he took on the challenge and soon realized the power and joy of programming. Since then, he learned a couple of other programming languages including Matlab, Python, and SAS. But his favorite is still by far R. He also enjoys data visualization a lot too.
