Speaking

I regularly give talks on A/B Testing, programming in R, data science career advice, and more. I’ve given talks across the country and internationally, to audiences ranging from 25 people to 800. If you’re interested in having me speak at your event, please contact me at robinson.es[at]gmail.com

My co-author Jacqueline Nolis and I also have our own podcast based on our book of the same title, Build a Career in Data Science. Each episode covers one chapter of the book, sharing the main takeaways as well as our personal experiences. The podcast is available on all major podcast platforms, and you can visit the website here.
