Hugo Bowne-Anderson, PhD
Hugo Bowne-Anderson is Head of Data Science Evangelism and VP of Marketing at Coiled, a company that makes it simple for organizations to scale their data science and machine learning in Python. He has extensive experience as a data scientist, educator, evangelist, content marketer, and a data strategy consultant at DataCamp, the online education platform for all things data. He also has experience teaching basic to advanced data science topics at institutions such as Yale University and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, conferences such as SciPy, PyCon, and ODSC and with organizations such as Data Carpentry. He has developed over 30 courses on the DataCamp platform, impacting over 500,000 learners worldwide through his own courses. He also created the weekly data industry podcast DataFramed, which he hosted and produced for 2 years. He is committed to spreading data skills, access to data science tooling, and open-source software, both for individuals and the enterprise.

Violeta Misheva, PhD
Violeta has been working as a data scientist in the Data Innovation and Analytics department in ABN AMRO bank located in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. In her daily job, she works on projects with different business lines applying the latest machine learning and advanced analytics technologies and algorithms. Before that, she worked for about 1.5 years as a data science consultant in Accenture, the Netherlands. Violeta enjoyed helping clients solve their problems with the use of data and data science but wanted to be able to develop more sophisticated tools, therefore the switch. Before her position at Accenture, she worked on her PhD, which she obtained from Erasmus University, Rotterdam in the area of Applied Microeconometrics. In her research, she used data to investigate the causal effect of negative experiences on human capital, education, problematic behavior and crime commitment.

Matt Brems
Matt currently leads instruction for GA’s Data Science Immersive in Washington, D.C. and most enjoys bridging the gap between theoretical statistics and real-world insights. Matt is a recovering politico, having worked as a data scientist for a political consulting firm through the 2016 election. Prior to his work in politics, he earned his Master’s degree in statistics from The Ohio State University. Matt is passionate about making data science more accessible and putting the revolutionary power of machine learning into the hands of as many people as possible. When he isn’t teaching, he’s thinking about how to be a better teacher, falling asleep to Netflix, and/or cuddling with his pug.

Michael Mitzenmacher, PhD
Michael Mitzenmacher is a Professor of Computer Science in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. Michael
has authored or co-authored over 200 conference and journal publications on a variety of topics, including algorithms for the Internet, efficient hash-based data structures, erasure and error-correcting codes, power laws, and compression. He is interested in both algorithms for AI applications, and how predictors from AI systems can yield better algorithms with rigorous performance bounds. He is an ACM Fellow and an IEEE Fellow. He has a widely used textbook on randomized algorithms and probabilistic techniques in computer science published by Cambridge University Press.
Michael Mitzenmacher graduated summa cum laude with a B.A. in mathematics and computer science from Harvard in 1991. After studying
mathematics for a year in Cambridge, England, on the Churchill Scholarship, he obtained his Ph. D. in computer science at U.C. Berkeley in 1996. He then worked at Digital Systems Research Center until joining the Harvard faculty in 1999. He served as the chair for computer science from 2010 to 2013 and co-chair in the 2018-2019 academic year.
