I'm originally trained as a physicist, but migrated toward computer science in grad school. After some internships with Google I got into real-world analytics and data science consulting. I've worked with clients in all sorts of industries, but especially companies in the web space. The consulting firm I work for was recently acquired by Teradata.
I also have a more light-hearted blog at www.fieldcady.com. I talk about stuff related to math - everything from educational policy to neuroscience. I self-published a Kindle book on the subject called "What is Math?"
