hi there!

I’m Sam (and my last name is pronounced “chick”). I’m the Data Training Coordinator at the National Center for Ecological Analysis & Synthesis (NCEAS) located at UC Santa Barbara, where I’m working to develop and teach data science training curricula for the Master of Environmental Data Science (MEDS) program and other data science initiatives across NCEAS and UCSB. I am also a co-organizer of R-Ladies Santa Barbara, a local data science group which works to promote diversity in the R community. In my spare time, you’ll typically find me hiking with my pup or cooking family dinners with friends.
