- So my favorite part about the work is really being ingrained in working with our business partners. I think there's this stigma about data science or analytics that is the person sitting in a closet with their computer, and it looks like the matrix. And in order to really do analytics well, you need to understand what is going on in the business. And you need to know that you're not going to be the expert in that. And so when you can make that connection between data and start to understand the trends and what is going on. And be able to say to a business partner, Hey, like, I know this was your gut feeling about this. Either one, you were right, or maybe you weren't so right. Starting to see that connection and actually putting it into work is really exciting for me.
