My name is Nolan Cockrell, I'm a local data analyst at Eli Lilly and Company. So Eli Lilly is a pharmaceutical company so we look at human pharmaceutical products and whether that's for diseases like diabetes with insulin, or oncology with cancer, or different new products that are coming up too. So they make products to help peoples' lives be better. So I'm working on different products so they have new products coming up and they're testing to see if it will become a future drug for people. I help with setting up information in the system so that they're able to do that. And I also help with different products they have on the production line too. I mean, the process to make drugs, is it takes a long time. So a lot of times, I'll be on the end of the process and things are just starting to roll out, so that's usually where I am. But I can work on something that's just kind of in the very beginning stages and it's gonna be a new product in the future, but I won't see all those steps, I'll only see just snippets of it. So not so much the entire product itself, but just making sure that everything's correct. So attention to detail is huge. So if I see something that needs to be changed, or something I have to make sure that's right, so that product goes out and the patient who takes that, ultimately, can trust that our product's good. So I can't kill a whole product, but it's one of those things that I can do my best, make sure it's the right thing as it goes out the door.
