Dwight Barry

Principal Data Scientist at Seattle Children’s Hospital
Dwight Barry is a Principal Data Scientist at Seattle Children’s Hospital. He uses 30-odd years of statistics and spatial analytics experience to help folks make better decisions...mostly by getting them to ask better questions. Along the way, he's established (to himself, at least), that healthcare data is as wild and smelly as the bears he used to track as an environmental scientist. He holds degrees from Texas A&M, Yale, and North Texas, and gets a lot of unreasonable joy from teaching.

Data Community Manager at Posit, PBC
I'm a data science educator and community builder who wants to help you cultivate a community of practice for yourself. I talk a lot about the benefits of making genuine human connections, the power of vulnerability, and why we all benefit when we show up as our whole selves. I'm also the host of the Data Humans podcast where my motto is: data science is not one thing.

I'm dedicated to strengthening our customer experience, elevating success stories, and building meaningful community programs.

Outside of work, I enjoy running, snowboarding, playing guitar, and catching live music anywhere I go.
