Value in Data Science Beyond Models in Production

January 31, 2020

ML in production is one of the most obvious ways that data science organizations create value in business. However, these models are at the very end of a long story of how quantitative research changes and enhances organizations.

He has a Masters in Negotiation, Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding, which is probably the most useful training he could have received.
