I'm really excited to be a nominee in this year's Royal Statistical Society Council elections! The society has been an incredibly welcoming and valuable place for me as an early career data professional

The entire set of nominees are brilliant, I'd encourage all members to take a look and vote 🗳

list columns have changed my life #rstats

how the hell is this allowed? #rstats

gutted to be leaving the young statisticians section of #royalstatsoc but it's really important that this job is passed around

it's been a blast - good luck friends

Some wizardry from stackoverflow allowed me to add global axis labels to a {patchwork} plot
