π I'm Sara Hansen (they/them), a data professional specializing in biodiversity data science. I love working with the messy, complex, exciting data that describe our world.
-
π³ Currently, I am a PhD candidate at Central Michigan University. My research areas include the distribution of invasive species, management of endangered species and their habitats, and biodiversity workforce training.
-
π Each of these projects has helped me gain various technical skills and insights into the connections between data and the people who generate them. I work primarily with R and SQL to manage databases, build machine learning models, and communicate my results to a broad range of stakeholders.
-
π I also enjoy working on fun side projects to explore new data types and data communication methods.
