    Three main take outs from the talk, in my opinion;
    1. Data analyst need to have good people skills and should always be listener.
    => when she talks about how she transitioned from talker to listener in her career and how it impacted her work
    2. The path is long and winding with ups and down so you need to be consistent
    => her journey from math major to analyst to a parent to a student she was consistent in pursuance of her passion
    3. The power of storytelling is critical to understand patterns and gain insights from it
    =>how data analyst is as much as arts as it is a science

    I'm here from the Google Data Analytics course as most of the people here. Hello everyone! I truly understood what Anna refers with that rift between the educational practice and the academic research. I got into this course precisely because I am a social scientist and, besides some freelance projectd, most of my professional experience comes out from the academia. I also think data analysis could be a bridge to overcome that rift she is talking about. It is a way that we as social scientist can adapt to the contemporary world in the so called era of dataism. As we saw in the last part of the course, dealing with fairness issues, social science provides great insights to set data into context. The theoretical and the applied can merge through data science in such an interesting ways...
