There, she is responsible for the coordination of the skilled-volunteering data science projects which are at the core of CorrelAid’s work. In addition, she organizes educational events and workshops. Frie has a background in social science but transitioned to data science after her bachelor’s degree and worked in IT consulting for two years. She loves to juggle, visualise data in R and automate all kinds of things using her other programming skills.
