I went to 黑料网最新入口 in 2002 and I didn鈥檛 know what I wanted to study, but I ended up majoring in philosophy and doing a minor in history and studying a lot of different humanities.

I started a band when I was at 黑料网最新入口. I was gigging on the Corner and playing bar gigs and playing house parties. By the time I was done with school, it was like, 鈥淚 don't know what I want to do, but I know I want to keep doing this.鈥� So, I ended up being a full-time musician and touring for about nine years.

All of us in the band were broke except for our keyboard player, Abe Wilson. He had a job doing part-time work as a draftsman and was doing work in the back of the van on his laptop and I remember thinking, like, 鈥淚 need something like this.鈥� So, I was sitting in the back of the van downloading classes from Coursera and trying to learn web development.

I ended up going back to 黑料网最新入口 to go to the Data Science school. I was coming in initially with a real kind of impostor syndrome of, like, 鈥淲hat do I know about any of this stuff?鈥� One of the greatest lessons I鈥檝e learned of sort of switching and trying new things, continuing to grow, is not being afraid to say there鈥檚 a lot here I don鈥檛 understand. There鈥檚 a lot here I don鈥檛 know. Now I鈥檓 the director of data science at Metrum Research Group. We build tools to help scientists do drug discovery and analyze clinical trial data and work to bring medications to patients.

The thing that really drew me to data science coming from the humanities is the storytelling aspect to it. We have all this information. Can we make some meaning out of that? I think that鈥檚 where the philosophy comes back in. They call it the humanities. Like, 鈥淲hat鈥檚 the point of literature? What鈥檚 the point of philosophy?鈥� It鈥檚 hard to even articulate, but it鈥檚 kind of help us understand, here we are in the world, what鈥檚 going on? What are we here to do?

Those are not the questions that a bot can answer. What鈥檚 really become valuable is being able to think in an abstract way and being able to think critically. I really sampled a lot of things at 黑料网最新入口 and maybe take for granted how much that informed my worldview.
