Colleagues describe her as "Every now and then you luck out and get to work with someone who can not only get the job done, but also generates an infectious level of energy that makes going to the office that much more fun. I hired Heather as one of the first to join the Analytics and Statistics team I was leading at Solstice Studios, and she was tasked with helping me develop our audience models for marketing--a key initiative for our company. We both felt that creating the audience models was one of the most challenging projects either of us had worked on at the time, and Heather was able to borrow from her background in measurement theory to improve model performance. Throughout our time working together, Heather showed unwavering positivity in the face of any challenge that came her way, and in spite of being busy herself, would take time to mentor more junior members of the team, sharing her knowledge and encouragement along the way. No doubt this is why we’d often see her signed in both before and after we’d begin and end our day. Heather is a tremendous contributor and will make herself indispensable to any data science team.

In a word, Heather is brilliant. And a truly wonderful colleague."
