To Research!

"The first thing they want to see is, can you communicate? Because you can do this beautiful analysis that's super difficult, but if you can't explain it to anyone else, they don't care." Anne Driscoll is my grad school roommate and the only person who has visited me in ALL 10 HOMES I have had since earning my master's degree. She went on to earn a PhD in statistics and now teaches students at all levels, conducts research in statistical process monitoring, and consults with NASA scientists. She defies most stereotypes of her profession. This data pro is one of warmest, wisest "people people" I've ever had the pleasure to meet. We also discuss our experience of the April 2007 massacre, which we watched from classroom windows directly across the drillfield, and what that violent event taught us about life, community and relationships. ​GO HOKIES!
