I am a veteran. I spent years in intelligence analysis, where being confidently wrong carried a cost, and that is where I learned to separate what evidence shows from what it suggests. I have a master's in journalism and communications, and I am finishing a doctorate in data science on how findings get communicated. I work in English and Portuguese.
