Untangle your data.
I'm Mike Walsh. I help businesses turn messy spreadsheets, scattered databases, and live data feeds into clear reports, reliable models, and maps people actually use.
Data analysis, Excel, and mapping services
Seven areas, one goal: turn the data you already have into answers you can act on.
- Data science and visualizationFind the patterns, drivers, and predictions hiding in your data, then show them clearly.
- Stream processing and real-time analyticsLive dashboards, instant alerts, and event pipelines that show what's happening right now.
- Reporting, forecasting, and process improvementAutomated reports that show trends, forecast what's next, and point to better processes.
- Excel workbook optimizationFast, reliable workbooks, and spreadsheets moved into databases and back again.
- What-if analysis and scenario designScenario models that show best case, worst case, and how likely each one is.
- Web interface and UI designFast, accessible interfaces and dashboards with fluid layouts and bright, clear design.
- ArcGIS and Leaflet mappingInteractive maps, heat maps, and spatial analysis that turn addresses into insight.
How a project works
- Tell me the questionWhat decision are you trying to make, and what's getting in the way? A short email is enough to start.
- We look at the data togetherI review what you have, point out gaps or quick wins, and propose a plan with a clear scope.
- I build and check the workAnalysis, workbook, dashboard, or map, tested against your real data, with check-ins along the way.
- You get it, with documentationEverything is handed over with plain-English notes, so your team can use it and update it.
