About Me

Hello! I am Joey Dronkers! I am a recent college graduate from Boston College. I currently am looking for employment most anywhere, and would be more than happy to live and grow roots in nearly any city! I am currently living in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and am from Portland, Oregon. I truly have loved pretty much anywhere I have lived, and could endlessly talk about it. I hope part of this website will serve as a collection of the personal projects that I have worked on! I get passionate for a lot, whether it be Data, Hiking, Literature, Video Games, Computers, Urbanism, Cooking, Tea, or so much more! I can talk endlessly about so much, so feel free to reach out even if you just want to chat about something!

Current Project

My current project that I am working on is collecting and analyzing data from Smogon. Smogon has releases a large json file sharing a large amount of Usage and Metagame Data for competitive pokemon for each official tier each month since 2014. I am currently making a visualizer for users to be able to track and graph data on meta-relevant statistics. I also am analyzing metagame trend outliers, which has had its own share of mathematical creativity. Finally, at the next usage data drop, I intend to mock up a visualization of month to month meta trends within the highest tier.
