External Vice President @ DataStory Consulting
About
I am a student at UC Berkeley, studying Data Science and Political Science, who is deeply interested in pursuing a career in the intersection of Data Science and Public Policy! I am curious about the quantitive applications of data in legal policies, and look to dive into the legal applicability of prediction and bias prevention algorithms utilizing real-world probability and statistical analysis.
