Our Founders

Our partnership was formed in 2018 by Keyur Patel, a widely-published economics journalist and author, and Marshall Lincoln, formerly Lead Data Scientist at a publicly-listed Silicon Valley cloud communications company. It combines skill-sets rarely found together: a proven ability to explain complex ideas in engaging and straightforward language, and a deep understanding of data science in industry.
