In this, episode 18 of the Analytics and Data Science Pulse Podcast, I was privileged to have the opportunity to speak with the one and only JT Kostman, PhD. I have been connected with JT for some time on LinkedIn, and I cannot thank him enough for his generosity in taking the time to speak with me and in turn, sharing that discussion with you. As you will hear in this episode, JT has the unique profile of someone with a background in Psychology, Mathematics, and Data Science. He has hunted terrorists for the U.S. intelligence agencies, tracked criminal networks for the FBI, advised the Department of Defense on analytic strategies and led social media analysis for the 2012 Obama campaign. In the corporate sector, he served as Chief Data Officer and member of the Executive Committee for Time Inc. and as Chief Data Scientist for Samsung.
