Joseph A'Hearn, PhD's Linkedin Analytics

I'm a self-driven data scientist with expertise in regression, modeling, and numerical simulations of dynamical systems, as evidenced by 4 peer-reviewed scientific publications and the successful completion of 11 programming-related projects. I enjoy applying my problem-solving skills and crafting quantitative models to derive industry-driven solutions. An active learner, I strive to upskill by learning new techniques. I come from an interdisciplinary background in physics and planetary dynamics as well as in philosophy and humanities, with 7 years of scientific research experience and 7 years of teaching experience. My recent research has advanced our knowledge of the dynamics of ring arcs, co-orbital moons, and ring seismology, especially relevant for the ring and moon systems around Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. I'm fluent in Spanish and proficient in Italian, having lived in Mexico and Rome for 2 years each. I'm also proficient in Latin and Classical/Koiné Greek. My strong oral and written communication skills with an ability for data storytelling in both analytical and concise formats are evidenced by 50 successful presentations and talks, including an award-winning poster, and my current endeavors as a podcast co-host. Given my skillset, I will be able to add much value to a data science position that requires both an analytical mindset and the communication of data-driven insights to technical or non-technical audiences.
