Avery Smith

👋 Hi! I'm. Avery Smith, and I'm the founder of

The Data Analytics Accelerator.


I started DAA because of my own journey. I used to be a chemical lab technician & I hated it. I was miserable. I was underpaid, overworked & flat out hopeless.

That was when I discovered data analytics.

And I was hooked. It was so fun. I spent the next 18 months trying to learn as much as I could to pivot into the data field.

I took all of my learnings & what I wish I would have known's & packaged them in The Data Analytics Accelerator to help people like you land their data job faster & easier.

So that's my mission, help people land data jobs.

Let me know if you have any questions!
