About
I’m Chris. I live in Oxfordshire with my partner and our two cats.
In a former life, I was an academic researcher. I have a B.S. in Physics and a Ph.D. in Materials Science. I studied solid-oxide fuel cell catalysts under Professor Sossina Haile. You can find publications I’ve contributed to on my Google Scholar page.
I am now a data scientist and data visualization designer. I started out as a data science intern at Datascope Analytics and became a data scientist & designer at IDEO, where I learned about and practiced the human-centered design process.
I currently work at DrivenData, a social enterprise developing machine learning solutions to social impact problems. We host data science competitions and offer data science consulting services.
