Background

About Tyler H.

As an Adjunct Professor at UMass Amherst, I teach Data Science, Computational Social Science, and Data Analytics to undergraduate and graduate students. I have a PhD in Sociology from The New School, where I conducted research on social networks, collective behavior, and digital media. I also have over 6 years of experience as a software engineer and a technology leader, working with startups and established companies in various domains. Most recently, I was the Chief Technology Officer at Bright Software, Inc, a company that develops innovative solutions for data-driven decision making. There, I led a team of engineers and data scientists, and oversaw the design, development, and deployment of the company's products and services. I have strong skills in computational social science, data science, artificial intelligence, and software engineering, and I enjoy applying them to solve real-world problems and create social impact. I am passionate about teaching and mentoring the next generation of data scientists and social scientists, and I am always eager to learn new things and explore new challenges.
