Hello again! I’m still Sean Brazel (pronounced ”razzle-dazzle-Brazel”). I have an extensive music background that turned into lots of technical data experience.
I am currently a data analyst at SoundExchange, the largest global neighboring rights organization in the world, where I have spent almost a decade now. Having worked with 4 different teams across multiple departments, ranging from customer relations and account management, to financial analysis and complex system escalations, I now leverage this institutional knowledge utilizing technical skills including SQL and Python to perform critical analysis on the Business Intelligence team.
I thrive on getting into the weeds and understanding how systems work at a granular level, and using that understanding to collaborate across teams to build smarter, more efficient workflows. Previous experience at The Kennedy Center and George Mason University has made me a well-rounded professional comfortable working across a wide range of teams and disciplines.
Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, traveling, getting outdoors hiking, camping, or snowboarding, and spending 3 hours every Sunday in the fall being tortured by the Commanders.
