I am fairly new to working with Python so forgive me if this is an obvious issue but when attempting to read my csv file into a data frame I get the following errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "pandas\_libs\parsers.pyx", line 1119, in pandas._libs.parsers.TextReader._convert_tokens
  File "pandas\_libs\parsers.pyx", line 1244, in pandas._libs.parsers.TextReader._convert_with_dtype
  File "pandas\_libs\parsers.pyx", line 1259, in pandas._libs.parsers.TextReader._string_convert
  File "pandas\_libs\parsers.pyx", line 1450, in pandas._libs.parsers._string_box_utf8
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x94 in position 11: invalid start byte

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\keegan.olson\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\pandas\io\parsers.py", line 688, in read_csv

Any Help would be greatly appreciated!
