Andres Viloria Garcia
Andres Viloria Garcia, graduated from Langara with a diploma in data analytics in 2023. This, along with a previously earned bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering, made him a leading candidate when ARC sought to add to their team of research assistants.
At ARC, Garcia works with Python, a programming language widely used in the data field that he has successfully made use of in a scientific laboratory setting. Garcia says, “There was a requirement to automate data transformation and visualization for the information obtained from the global case management system for Langara’s hops and cannabis projects. I utilized Python to accomplish these automations.”
Garcia has also worked for the Applied Research Technology Partnership (ARTP), a fund for data analytics research. Garcia explains, “During my time at ARTP, I had the opportunity to apply my data analytics skills to three different projects in Canada. These projects aimed to develop systems that assist healthcare companies with their data analysis requirements, especially in clinical decision support. Additionally, I was also involved in performing a data migration process for a psychological services clinic."
