Hello World

Hi there! I'm officially launching my data science blog where I'll not only talk about what makes a good data scientist but how to become one. I believe data science is an art that is a seasoned combination of statistics, machine learning, and computer science. It's in one sense a form of data expression and communication that bridges a gap between data and human. Harvard Business Review in 2012 noted that data scientist is the sexiest job of the 21st century, and this is especially true because every company and field of study uses data in order to make good decisions.

But how does one make data useful for decision making? Data is nothing without proper source, storage, analysis, insights, and communication; data scientists are needed to carry out and monitor all the process. They are artists, for they need to look at the data from many different perspectives. No one data scientist derives exactly the same conclusion from given data using exactly the same approach. In that sense, data scientists are the Renaissance artists that fuel the growth of the 21st century.

I plan to write about my experiences as a data scientist, statistics and machine learning, programming, philosophy, or just about anything that interests me. If you have any questions feel free to write a comment or an email, and I'll try my best to reply as soon as possible.
