The Data Science Twitch Streamer + Sports Analytics (Nick Wan) - KNN Ep. 08

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nick Wan. Nick streams data science content on twitch, but also has worked in sports analytics with the Cincinnati Reds. His work there allowed him to pivot recently into a data science manager role at KFC.

In this interview I talked with Nick about his experiences learning data science, breaking into sports analytics, and streaming data science content on Twitch. He also gives some awesome advice related to interviewing for data science roles and learning as you go. At around an hour in Nick and I talk about what our projects look like and how they have grown over time. Here I even bring up some of my grad school work as an example. If you want to see the video version of the podcast so you can see what Nick and I are referencing check out the Youtube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_CuB__nsmI.
