After a self-designed major in data science at Northwestern University I co-founded Rise Science as the CTO. I deeply believe that good design causes behavior change, and that's what I do every day: a product to improve sleep behaviors. As technical folks we can get bogged down in the nuances of models and datasets, but what matters is how we communicate it in the appropriate way for each audience. Working in the full-stack of not only the product itself, but the company as whole gives me a powerful perspective in how data is useful, and how it sometimes is not as important.
