December 2024 — Data quality and pipeline reliability improvements in clessn/datagotchi_federal_2024. Delivered the Data Cleaning Standardization and Dataset Alignment feature for Lifestyle Exercise & Transportation, including: standardizing lifestyle_exercise labels, updating the dataset loading path to the latest data file, and reclassifying transportation types into general categories (car, active_transport, shared_transport) with updated choice_transport mappings. Implemented via two commits (0bcdf0fecc967dcb206a323080352d9aa4f34c84; dbb4424cd5ee1dde62eb088b912ae1eb9f6e6fa8), enabling more reliable downstream analytics and cleaner feature engineering.
