I am the lead data scientist and founder of Public Service and Procurement Canada's (PSPC) data science team. In December of 2017, I moved to PSPC to build and lead its data science initiative after a decade as a senior operational research scientist with Defence Research and Development Canada. I provide the technical leadership and oversight of the team, including the supervision of all statistical approaches, code quality, and accuracy of results. My team provides data science solutions to PSPC branches and occasionally to other departments in the Government of Canada. We provide complete solutions, from the mathematical modelling - including deep learning and artificial intelligence - to data visualization through custom web apps hosted on our servers. Our insights help senior decision makers understand the consequences of different courses of action by allowing them to create counterfactual scenarios
