The most complete tutorial is contained in the Fantasy-Golf-Forecasting project -- check it out!
My personal favorite mini-project, and the most ambitious, is UFC-Forecasting.
The FIFA Dataset Player Exploration is light on the technical side of things, but it contains some fun exploratory data analysis and charts.
I created this small portfolio when I was learning the basics of data science. The process helped me acquire the skills needed to land an awesome full-time position as a Data Scientist with Fair. As a result, I am currently working on amazing projects; however, they are obviously not available to share publicly.
