In this episode of The Gateway, we are thrilled to interview Libby Heeren, a data science educator and data community builder who wants to help data people cultivate a supportive and inclusive community of practice where they can really feel like they belong. She talks a lot about the benefits of making genuine human connections, the power of vulnerability, and why we all benefit when we show up as our whole selves as data people. Her motto is: data science is not one thing."
