By day I am a public health data scientist working on creating useful interactive web information products from a smorgasbord of data sets. My main focus is environmental health tracking but I do a lot of other kinds of data science as well.

In my spare time I am a passionate dog owner, a fly fisherman, a struggling middle-aged cyclist and a potter.

"Fail your way to greatness."

This is my mantra, if you can be brave enough to try, fail and try again, anything is possible....like starting a data science career midstream with a bachelors in fine arts and the will to persevere!
