I was one of the first data scientists hired at DoorDash, joining the company when it had ~150 employees. I ended up staying for 6 years as the company grew to over 10,000 employees, working primarily on sales analytics, marketing analytics, logistics analytics, and predictive modeling. Since leaving DoorDash, I've been consulting in the logistics, media, and fintech/crypto space. My current clients include DoorDash, popular entertainment brand Fandom, and fintech/crypto startup Snag Solutions. Previous clients include a crypto VC firm, a podcast marketing startup, and an audio production app. I am based in Los Angeles, California.
