Daniel Krasner's Summary
I am the Chief Data Scientist at Sailthru in charge of building the data team as well as running that side of the business. My focus is on data mining, data visualization, recommendation systems, business intelligence, decision support and predictive mathematical modeling. Before entering the private sector I was a mathematician (Columbia University PhD) working in the intersection of low-dimensional topology, representation theory and homological algebra. I held a position at MSRI and UCLA. Currently I work on a wide range of data related problems on a full-time and consulting basis and am always happy to discuss interesting opportunities.
