I have been working with SAS for over 7 years since 2010. Having been exposed to the academic, financial, and clinical environment, my SAS experience and knowledge was greatly broadened and versatile. To better promote my career, I became a certified SAS programmer, and am holding 3 certifications so far: SAS Base, SAS Advance, and SAS Clinical Trial.

In order to transfer my knowledge and expertise in SAS, and help people learn SAS better, I would like to create several courses at various levels, with different focuses tailored to fit everyone's need. I have been trying my best to provide excellent courses to the best of my knowledge. I sincerely hope you will like it, and find it useful.

Check out my personal website JSTARTS.COM and my social media . I will publish free tutorial video and articles there on a regular basis.

I will write a bit more about myself, in case you are interested and find it useful:

I used to work in a university environmental lab for a few years to collect experimental data and to provide statistical support to other master and PhD students. I then became a data analyst in an online bidding company to create models for database mining and target marketing, and worked there for only one year. Now I am working for one of the biggest CRO (Contract Research Organization) in the world with my SAS Clinical expertise, and have been transfered into a Biostatistician.
