Rebecca Barter

Rebecca is about to finish her PhD in statistics at UC Berkeley. Instead of doing the research that she was supposed to be doing, she spent most of her time writing about data science (in a book that she is co-authoring with her advisor Bin Yu), and blogging about R and statistics. After her PhD, she plans to pursue a career in data science communication, where she will focus on teaching and writing about data science, and tell visual stories with data. In her free time, Rebecca likes to climb rocks and do pottery.
