Artist‘s Statement
My work explores my interest in the synergetic relationship between two fields traditionally considered to be opposite: a technical one like data analytics and a creative one like writing. As I embark on my professional journey, I want to continue leveraging and building both of those skill sets and passions of mine. Technology is challenging the operations of the writing world; I also want to challenge traditional paths, paving my own instead.
Data science is everywhere; I learn about it in class, I read it on the news, and I experience it while surfing the web. But how does data science intersect with writing and publishing?
