<p>I'm a data scientist and ecologist working as a statistician for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service, located on the campus of N.C. State University in Raleigh, North Carolina. Until recently I was a data scientist at <a href="https://sesync.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SESYNC</a> in Annapolis, Maryland, supporting interdisciplinary researchers at the crossroads of social and environmental sciences. I also do my own research using big open data to study the environmental footprint of the food system and how humans are affecting natural communities of organisms. I contribute to a few different R packages including <a href="https://sesync-ci.github.io/rslurm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">rslurm</a> and <a href="https://corybrunson.github.io/ggalluvial" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ggalluvial</a>. Ask me about string figures, Irish trad music, and birding!</p>
