Carrie Bennette

Data Scientist & Data Visualization Designer







Hi, I'm Carrie. Nice to meet you.

I'm a biostatistician and health economist by training and a data visualization designer at heart. I use statistical and mathematical models to conduct research that informs domestic and global health policy. Over the past 12+ years, I've worked with academics, non-profit organizations, tech startups and large corporations to discover and communicate data-driven insights in a visually engaging and effective way.



Data Scientist


I leverage my PhD-level training in biostatistics and econometrics plus industry experience working as data scientist to ensure all analyses are statistically sound and scientifically rigorous.



Expertise:

  • Survival Analyses
  • Risk Prediction
  • Data Wrangling
  • Multilevel Modeling
  • Missing Data
  • Analysis of Survey Data
  • Machine Learning
  • Time Series Analyses

Data Visualization Designer


I create both static and interactive visualizations for use in print and online. I love to make standard charts look beautiful as well as design completely custom visualizations to tell a unique story.



Tools I use:

  • R/RStudio
