Dr. Javiera Guedes

Formerly a computational astrophysicist, I transitioned into data science in 2013. In order to transition successfully, I felt that I needed training and for this reason I joined the Insight Data Science Fellowship in Silicon Valley, where I learned everything I needed to know to get a job in tech. Today I work as a Senior Data Scientist at Credit Suisse, and I enjoy learning about the latest AI technologies in my free time. 

 

I would be happy to mentor someone who

• is transitioning from academia into the tech industry

• is currently working in academia and wants to know more about working in tech

• has taken a long career break and wants to return to work
