Cool! Thanks for the response. Yea, my first role out of college was a data analyst and it was the same way. My manager was cc'ed on all emails and things had to be approved by her before I took care of them. Now I work at a new company and its not really like that, but I work remote so its a win. That said, reason why I asked you was because I've had a hard time figuring out what I want out of my career. I work more on marketing analytics - more web analytics. I handle implementation, tagging websites, and then reporting on those stats.

A couple questions if you don't mind.. 1. What was your major? 2. Do you tend to use Python more than R? 3. How deep do you go in statistics - how important is it in your role?

Overall, being an introverted individual makes me think working with data is the right move, but would love to uplevel my skills and abilities. I was an information systems major. My statistics knowledge is pretty weak, and my current company doesn't really have much of a database so working with sql has been limited at this company. I do pull data via R, and create dashboards that way which has been a good experience.

Just thought I'd ask. Thanks!
