About me

Hi,

My name is Khalil Foulks. I'm a software engineer with a background in analytics and a strong interest in working in the tech industry. I graduated from La Salle University with a B.S in Finance and Business Analytics. After graduating I became a data analyst, optimizing SQL queries, cleaning data and generating insights. Recently, I made the switch from data analyst to software engineer because I realized I have a strong passion for building projects and creating tools.
