Bio:
Hilary Mason played a major role in defining data science and evangelizing the discipline. Hilary is one of the pioneering data practitioners along with folks like DJ Patil, Jeff Hammerbacher, Pete Skomoroch, Monica Rogati, Josh Wills, Andrew Ng and more… the way this group defined data science reminds me of the Philosophical Breakfast club.
