Data Scientist w/8yrs experience in Politics, Stanford MS+BA

Bio

I’m a data scientist trying to understand human behavior and drive social progress and elect Democrats.

I study Data Science (BA) and Management Science & Engineering (MS) at Stanford University with a 4.0 GPA. I specialize in machine learning, geospatial data analytics, and computational social science.

At Stanford, I’ve taken coursework in computer science, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, linear algebra, multivariable calculus, statistics, causal inference, stochastic modeling, optimization, survey methodology, political science, and economics.

I’ve worked in data modeling firms, campaigns, nonprofits, consulting firms, and academia to help organizations use data to optimize strategy for greater impact.

Beyond data, I’ve been a director of a statewide redistricting coalition, campaign consultant, field director, and community organizer.

My political experience outside tech has taught me the challenges campaigns and organizations face. Now I help harness data and machine learning (AI) to meet those needs and propel the progressive movement.
