About

I am an experienced Data Scientist currently working at Baylor Genetics in their Bioinformatics department.

I have extensive experience in a range of industries in addition to genetics, as well as a long history of excellence in my work. This is verifiable via my LinkedIn profile, where every manager I've had for a significant length of time has left a recommendation.

"Brent is a very capable and hard working data scientist. He is ambitious and thinks creatively. He has grit." - Chad Shaw, Director of Innovation Lab at Baylor Genetics

"I have been working with Brent several times as a supervisory senior data scientist. During this time, I have come to extensively rely on Brent's skills, mental agility and ability to communicate complex findings in clear, intelligible language. Brent possesses a deep familiarity with R and Python, a thorough understanding of data science methodology and a true sense of passion for getting meaning out of data. He's a true team player, able to integrate with others but also self-reliant and willing to explore new approaches on his own. He is an asset for any data science team, and I recommend him without reservations." - Chris von Csefalvay, Principal Data Scientist at Starschema

My work history across a wide variety of industries has allowed me to hone the ability to adapt & learn rapidly when placed in a new situation. Whatever your business needs may be, you can be confident that I will make valuable contributions to your endeavor. I look forward to working with you!

Work Terms

My base hourly rate is $45. I will discount fixed projects somewhat at a rate of $250 per full 8-hour day of work (or equivalent). I am willing to negotiate rates for interesting & unique projects.

I am currently a full-time employee, so I am primarily looking for freelance projects I can complete outside of the normal work hours or on the weekends. The details can be further elucidated later, though I am pretty flexible outside of my regular day job.

I work remotely from Houston, TX and have extensive experience doing so.
