What career path do you go down when blood churns your stomach? Data, of course. That’s where this week’s episode with data consultant and advisor, Sarah Krasnik, started: discussing how her exposure to cognitive science at John’s Hopkins (paired with a squeamishness for blood) left her looking for another way to influence people’s perception of the world with logic and information. So, she pursued data science.

Leading a data engineering team at PerPay – an all-in-one FinTech app providing underserved consumers with an easy way to make purchases, pay over time, & build credit – inspired Sarah to jump into freelance consulting work so she could start hacking away at some side projects. Because of that work, she’s gained knowledge in tons of different data-related areas.

So, if you enjoy some healthy debates and hearing opposing opinions, you’ll like this episode. Is data science really a science? What do you think about the no-code movement? Is it feasible for UI to be improved with “power features”? Listen in as we tackle all this and more.
