What is the question
you are trying to answer?
To me, it directly translates to the science of data and applying a systematic process to study the data generated in our world.
These days, everything is generating some kind of data and there is great diversity in our approaches to understanding it.
But always, no matter the data or design, you have to start at the beginning...
What does
DATA SCIENCE
mean to you?
I am here to help!
I have a passion for learning, teaching, and promoting statistics and am a Scholar-Professional in Columbia University’s Applied Analytics program. I hold a PhD in Biostatistics from the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Medicine.
I enjoy connecting with anyone who loves using data to generate insights, especially with innovative applications!
To reach your greatest potential as an effective data scientist, you need to sandwich your technical skills between rock star business skills.
