About Me

Data Scientist, Amateur SysAdmin, Polymath

I'm Andrew Simonson, a Data Scientist at Ecolab and a graduate Data Science student at Rochester Institute of Technology, having recently completed the Computer Science BS program (international relations minor) with a focus on probability theory.

I get bored and throw random stuff on this website.
This is what unprofessional development looks like.



I also have a resume for unexplained reasons.

Live crowd migration map using RIT occupancy data. It seems RIT didn't like me exposing their surveilance state but since they didn't want to talk to me about it they instead changed the service response schema a few times. When that didn't stop me they just shut down the whole service. Nerds.
