<p>Welcome back to our bi-weekly episodes of Season 5 of the Banana Data Podcast! This season, we’re ushering in the notion of humanizing data science. In last week’s episode, we discussed why technology’s long-term goal shouldn’t solely be efficiency, but actually emotional intimacy. This week, we were joined by Matt Dorros to discuss the rise of the citizen data scientist and his role as a data analyst manager and data citizen at Wayfair.
