About

Me

I’m Zane Troyer. In the 9 to 5 I’m a data analyst at JW Player. In the other hours I’m not much different, except that I read more and do less.

The Book Reviews

The reviews serve three purposes: to help me retain what I read, to humbly get my creative juices going, and to entertain anyone who might care to read them.

The Blog Posts

Sometimes I get revved up by the news enough to ramble about it for a paragraph.

The Site

I use Yihui Xie’s wonderful blogdown package to build the site. Blogdown makes it easy to have a fancy static website. All I have to do is write markdown files in RStudio!

The layout is Barron Schwartz’s Story theme.

Big thanks!

Services

I am available for data science consultation. Need someone to help you with A/B tests, analytics strategy, or general data stuff? I’m your guy. Feel free to reach out to the address below.

And if you read my reviews and decide you’re looking for a freelance writer, I might be your guy. I might even write for free.

I also like tutoring. Some of my favorite classes to teach: Calculus 1 and 2, Economics 1 (Micro), Statistics, Regression Modeling, and Introductory Programming. Some assembly required.

Contact

Proudly using the old student email address. It’s ztroyer at vols dot utk dot edu. I’m somewhat reluctantly on Twitter, and even more reluctantly on LinkedIn.
