A quantitative professional with over twenty years of experience, resulting in a rich career crafting strategy to mine, identify, model, target, and influence behavior. I've been fortunate enough to simultaneously develop the personal/partnership skills that drive results along with the technical skills to deliver the results. While I was an accomplished SAS programmer for 17+ years, I now enjoy the freedom and power of open-source software and tools (Python, Pandas, Scikit-Learn, JuPyteR, GNU Linux). My industry experience includes Insurance (Auto, Life, Annuities, Long-Term Care), Banking (Credit Risk in Home Equity, Secured & Unsecured Lending, Credit Cards, Retail) along with analysis/consulting in Auto, CPG, Print Media, Spirits, Telecom and VOIP. My functional area experience includes Risk, Marketing, and IT.
