Hello! I'm a rising Senior at the University of Michigan pursuing a BSE in Data Science. This summer is my second working for the University of Michigan Biological Station as an Assistant Data Manager and it's helped me realize that I want to pursue a career in Earth & space data when I graduate next spring. I've been trained in databases, data management, machine learning, statistics, and software development, so now I'm looking to explore the different areas of Earth and space research and find where I fit in as a Data Scientist. I would love to talk to you about your work experiences and hear any advice you might have for a rising professional.
