Hey, I’m Chris
Staff Data Scientist & Manager at Meta. Before that: founding data scientist at a startup that got acquired by Stripe, and a stint at Twitter before that. Yale econ/psych grad and two-season professional lacrosse player. I like turning messy problems into ones you can actually measure. Say hi if you’re building something interesting.
