Let's talk this fall

If you haven't seen my speaking page recently, I'm speaking 11 times over the next two months. I'm gonna be in Boston and New York and San Francisco and London and Minneapolis and Montreal. And of course, in Atlanta. But I'm always in Atlanta. (and I'm usually in Atlanta eating fast food).

My talks are mostly about how MailChimp has tackled this whole Big Data thing. As a midsize business that makes money off something other than data, you quickly realized that your place in a company as a data scientist is not to be the rock star. No, you've gotta integrate with the larger machine to produce the best product possible. So I'll be talking about how that worked at a very design-centric company and what products have come out of it.

At INFORMS, I'm going to be talking a bit more specifically about a study we did on send frequency. And at Big Data Tech Con I'm actually teaching an all-day introduction to data science algorithms.

So if you see a talk in your neck of the woods, come on out. And if you want to grab a beer, just reach out and let's set something up!
