Data, product analytics, and web projects @ Cornell

Portrait of Coco You

I'm Coco, an Information Science student going into data science.

I study Information Science and Environment & Sustainability at Cornell, with a Data Science concentration and Business minor. I work across Python, R, JavaScript, statistics, dashboarding, and AI modeling to turn messy datasets into clear decisions.

My projects focus on research data products, instrument dashboards, literature extraction, and decision tools. My experience spans AI modeling, fixed income banking, venture capital, business analytics, and content analytics, which helps me connect technical work to real users and business questions.
