Hi, I’m Phil.

Regardless of the title, the best part of every job I’ve held has been working with data and sharing stories. After earning a master’s degree in Data Science for Public Policy, I’m excited to solve challenging, real-world problems through data analysis and machine learning as a Data Scientist.

More About Me

A New Orleans native by way of south Alabama and Charleston, SC, I live just outside Washington, DC with my wonderful wife.

On weekends, you’ll find us exploring new coffee shops, walking the neighborhood and saying hi to every dog we meet, or singing along to our favorite bands while running errands (mostly pop-punk, emo, and hardcore bands, usually from the early aughts, with some Jonas Brothers and a lot of Taylor Swift thrown in for good measure).

My hobbies include writing about music, running an ongoing Dungeons & Dragons campaign, rooting for (and commiserating over) the New Orleans Saints, and playing board games.
