Analyst Talk - Jennifer Baggett - Caring Through Data
Episode: 00274 Released on July 7, 2025 Description: This week on Analyst Talk with Jason Elder, Jason chats with Jennifer Baggett, a crime analyst with over a decade of experience and a career path as unique as her perspective. From spinning classic rock on the Chattanooga airwaves to analyzing overdose trends for Hamilton County, Jen shares how a communications degree, a love for musical theater, and a pivotal conference keynote led her to become a data-driven, victim-focused analyst.
Jen reflects on the early days of Chattanooga PD’s crime analysis unit, the mentorship that shaped her skills, and her role in building a legacy of tactical crime analysis. She also opens up about the importance of health and wellness in this often sedentary profession and how physical strain nearly ended her career—until she made a change.
Whether you’re new to analysis or a seasoned pro, Jen’s story is a testament to resilience, curiosity, and the power of building relationships inside and outside of the data.
