Hello, my name is Nik! I graduated magna cum laude with a double-major Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems and Entrepreneurship from Loyola University Chicago. While in college, I realized the classes I enjoyed most were not necessarily because of the subject material (unless you really enjoy accounting), but rather the professors who made classes fun and engaging. Their abilities to connect real-world examples to subject matter, encourage questions, offer extended office hours and crack the occasional joke are what I intend to adopt towards my own tutoring approach.

Currently I work full time as a data engineering consultant in the IT space. I specialize in sql, data modeling and building analytical dashboards (Tableau and Power BI specifically). I’ve organized training workshops with coworkers, educating them about past client experiences or how to use specific data analytical tools.

When it comes to my tutoring approach, practice, practice, practice is what I will always encourage. I intend to thoroughly teach the material, followed by practice problems and / or an open discussion for any questions a student may have. Or if a student needs specific help on an assignment, I can provide support there too.

My data consulting career path started with my experience as an undergrad Resident Assistant and desire to help others. Now as I progress in my craft, I want to mentor and train students, teaching them lessons I wish I knew once I started.

Fantastic Tutor

Nikolas is extremely knowledgeable and was very patient with me in our extended lesson. We had a long list of items in our agenda that we had to go over and he was up for the challenge. He was very patient with my little to no understanding of SQL. Nikolas took the time to help me learn the fundamentals of SQL along with showing me some great tricks in Visual Studio. I HIGHLY recommend booking time with Nikolas, I guarantee you will get a lot from your lesson with him.

Great Instructor

Nik taught me how to navigate tableau, build dashboards and a lot of the tips and tricks. After just my first session with him I was able to build a quite a few visuals on my own. He is very knowledgeable and I recommend him.

Carsen, 1 lesson with Nikolas

Excellent Tutor For Tableau

I ended up having a much more difficult time interfacing my excel data into 3 Tableau dashboards than I anticipated. I was looking for a same day tutor to assist. Nikolas was quick to reply, accommodating and asked for my assignment to be sent over prior to our call to insure he was fully prepared to help me. He was punctual getting on the call, easy to understand, welcomed my questions, and has a great personality. Highly recommend!

Nikolas was very helpful with understanding where to insert items and why I was inserting them there. Helped me understand the overview of what PowerBI is capable of.
