I’m Giovanna: I am a life-long scientist, engineer (CA EIT), trained data scientist (General Assembly Data Science Immersive course graduate [May 2022]), currently working as a data engineering consultant. I’ve been coding since mid-2000’s, and working with data for over 10 years. I previously worked as a scientist, studying how humans interact with their environment and authored technical reports on findings for the NASA Ames HSI/HCI community. As a researcher in human factors, I’ve designed experiments, collected data and completed statistical analyses. With an academic background in applied mathematics and trained in contemporary machine learning/ AI tools, I’m exceptionally prepared to work in designing systems and models that ensure trust and safety for users. I’ve consistently worked to bridge communication gaps by distilling complex technical concepts for non-technical audiences, translating information to Spanish, and creating graphics and visualizations to summarize numerical data. I look forwarding to discussing how I can add value to your organization, bridging the technical-human connection.
