My name is Tommy; I am a statistician, mathematician, or data scientist—depending on the problem or the audience—in Washington DC. I am a graduate of Georgetown's MS program for mathematics and statistics. I am a PhD student in George Mason's department of Computational and Data Sciences. Opinions expressed are my own.
