About

I help aspiring data analysts stand out and land real opportunities. Not by copying tutorials Not by building one-off projects But by learning how to think, build, and communicate like an actual analyst I’ve worked across data analytics building dashboards, analyzing campaigns, and turning messy data into insights that drive decisions Along the way, I kept running into the same problem most people don’t talk about: It’s not learning the tools It’s knowing what to build, why it matters, and how to show it That’s what I focus on I break down what actually matters if you want to get into (or grow in) data: - real project ideas that stand out beyond tutorials - how to think through problems like an analyst - practical workflows using SQL, Excel, Tableau, and modern data tools - mistakes that keep people stuck applying for jobs Everything is based on real experience, not theory Community & Reach: I’ve grown a community of 120k+ aspiring and early-career data analysts on LinkedIn My goal is simple: Make data analytics more practical, accessible, and grounded in how the work actually happens Beyond Content: I’m also building tools and systems to help people stay consistent and improve over time as they build projects and skills If you're working toward a career in data, you're in the right place For partnerships, collaborations, or tools: klosowiczian@gmail.com

Makerlog

Builder

Mar 2026Present · 2 mos · Remote

  • Building Makerlog — a system designed to help builders and analysts track their work, decisions, and progress over time.
  • The idea came from a real problem I experienced while working in data and building projects on the side:

  • logging work sessions

  • maintaining momentum across builds
  • This directly connects to how analysts and builders actually work. Iterative, messy, and evolving over time.

  • Applied real-world data workflows (iteration, logging, structured thinking) to product design
  • Leveraged modern tools and AI-assisted development to rapidly prototype and ship features
