Become a Citizen Data Scientist | Allison Sagraves | TEDxBuffalo

Using big data to solve problems isn't a job for researchers and academics, it's for anyone who wants to help. Allison Sagraves shows how you can help catalog penguins from your bed, or boost the populations of Monarch Butterflies during your coffee break.

Allison Sagraves is the Chief Data Officer for M&T Bank, thought leader and change agent in the field of data. Allison has a Harvard MBA and is a frequent speaker on data, leadership, and innovation.
