In this seminar, Desireé Abbott talks about how leaving grad school with a master's degree was one of the best decisions she ever made and how that set her on the path to find her true passion in data visualization, a perfect marriage of being mathematical and technical while also getting to make beautiful things.
Desireé earned her B.S. in Physics from Purdue University in 2008 and her M.S. in Physics from UC Davis in 2012. She is now a freelance data visualization consultant, instructor of a successful course on Coursera, and author of "Everyday Data Visualization" from Manning Publications.
