September 4, 2024 - Data Analytics Charlotte Chaze and Startup Different David Sinkinson

Charlotte Chaze – Founder of Break into Tech

Break Into Tech was founded by Charlotte Chaze when she was working as a Senior Manager in Analytics at AT&T. Before her successful career in analytics began, Charlotte was an academic researcher in a basement lab with no windows. Sick of her stressful job with long hours and low pay, she taught herself data analytics online in an attempt to find a better career option. Needless to say, it worked. Charlotte’s first Data Analyst job took her from her $28k salary as an academic researcher to a $70k salary as an Associate Analyst. After accomplishing what she had thought wasn’t possible, she decided to go for even more. Less than 4 years after teaching herself data analytics online, Charlotte was making a $158k base salary as a Senior Manager in Analytics at AT&T. Charlotte has always had a passion for helping others, so she created a TikTok account to tell the world about this lucrative job option and how anyone can do what she did. The response was massive, and she couldn’t keep up with all the questions and comments. That’s when she created our Free Data Analytics Course. It’s a list of all the free resources Charlotte recommends, plus her suggested order to work through them so it’s as easy as possible, and her free resume template, salary guide, and LinkedIn tips. But that wasn’t enough – everyone wanted Charlotte herself to teach them data analytics. Charlotte used all her vacation time for the entire year to create her Data Analytics Certificate Course. Once it became clear that it worked, she then quit her Senior Manager position to focus on Break Into Tech. Now Break Into Tech has helped hundreds of people from all walks of life get their first data analytics jobs. People like teachers, stay at home moms, customer service reps, retail workers, waiters/servers, bank tellers, warehouse workers, a truck driver, a police officer, virtual assistants, healthcare workers, and so on.
