How to Thrive as an Early-Career Data Scientist

Added on June 8, 2021 by Jon Krohn.

Getting started in data science? Today's episode is for you! Sidney Arcidiacono is absolutely crushing her first year in the field; we discuss the options for getting started in the field and top tips for early-career success.

Trained as a phlebotomist (blood-sample collection), Sidney was inspired by the potential for machine learning to revolutionize healthcare, so she jumped feet first into a full-time computer science degree at Make School, specializing in the data science track. From no familiarity with code or models just a year ago, Sidney's immersion has paid off: She's now fluent in the modern data science software stack and landed a summer data science internship at GreenLight Biosciences, Inc., an RNA-molecule therapeutics firm (like the Pfizer/BioNTech/Moderna vaccines).

Sidney is terrifically sharp and engaging; I think you'll enjoy hearing from her as much as I did during filming.
