Person

Stoudt, Sara

My name is Sara Stoudt, and I use she/her pronouns. I am a lecturer in the Statistical & Data Sciences program at Smith College for the 2020-1 academic year. In the fall, I will be joining the Bucknell University Mathematics Department as a tenure-track Assistant Professor. I received my PhD in statistics from the University of California, Berkeley where I was also a Berkeley Institute for Data Science Fellow. Prior to being a BIDS Fellow, I was supported by a National Physical Sciences Consortium Fellowship with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and part of the Data Science for the 21st Century: Environment and Society Training Program. My research focus is on ecological applications of statistics and statistics communication. At Berkeley I was advised by Will Fithian and Perry de Valpine and taught writing for statistics with Deb Nolan. Previously, I received a B.A. in Mathematics from Smith College with an emphasis on Statistics . Check out Deborah Nolan and my new book, "Communicating with Data: The Art of Writing for Data Science"
