Interview
"When I decided to to do the master's it was an exploration itself. I knew I wanted to do more with data - but I wanted to explore what that meant. Did I want to be a data scientist? A statistician? A data journalist? And one thing I realized while I was at the Barcelona School of Economics was that I really did like engineering and I was pretty ok at it. So once I graduated, I was pretty sure engineering was still the right path for me."
