Jennifer M. Wang, Ph.D.

Product Data Scientist

Hi, I'm Jenn! ❥

I'm a Product Data Scientist working at the intersection of analytics, UX, machine learning, and full-stack product management.

I LOVE 🖤 using data + statistics 📊 to tell compelling stories. I enjoy translating messy data into clear, actionable insights for all audiences.

My unique background combines a Ph.D. in Quantitative Psychology (minor: Statistics) with hands-on experience at high-growth startups and established tech companies.
