Hi there 👋!

Data Science

My name is Martina, I am a data scientist by profession and a general data lover - I have always been fascinated by the idea of extracting quantitative information, challenge assumptions, prove facts. I work in Machine Learning/AI and have a keen interest in the ethical application of algorithmic systems.

Science

I come from science, having done some academic research (in Physics, but I applied methods of statistical mechanics/complex systems to Linguistics, studying the evolution of natural language), you can see my publications here.

Projects

• 🔊 I usually speak about data in various events - list of my talks here
• 👥 I enjoy mentoring people about data (both technically and not)
• 🔥 I am all about open and accessible data - I volunteer with OnData
