About Magick Data Sciences
Magick's origin story revolves around a central tenant: a shared love of helping others solve problems. Some people have a passion for sports, playing poker, or cultivating rare orchids. We do too, but generally not as much as we like digging into a new data set, optimizing a costly legacy business process, or discovering a new way to make complex information accessible to anyone.
So we packed up our corporate bag of tricks, donned our enchanted robes, and set out into the World with the mission of turning our experience and curiosity into quality of life improvements for people who spend their days toiling with the oft-forgotten and overlooked parts of business—spreadsheets, databases, back office tools.
Along the way we've encountered like-minded people who know how to discover, document, design, and engineer unique solutions for our clients, in ways which can only be described as magickal.
