About

My name is Andrew, but I go by Andy.

I am a data scientist, coder, writer and talker. I wear a lot of hats and like to learn through doing.

I believe the best data is rare data, and I am particularly interested in data acquisition from difficult sources.

I used to DJ a lot. I am still technically signed to Tommy Boy Records.

Before that, I did genomic research at NYU.

The last three songs I listened to***:

  • “Face Card” - Kinfolk Kia Shine
  • “Trying To Hold On To My Woman” - Lamont Dozier
  • “Clearer Picture (of You)” - Greg Mendez

The last three books I read***:

  • Minsitry For The Future - Kim Stanley Robinson
  • Agency - William Gibson
  • Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures - Merlin Sheldrake
