**WE ARE HIRING**

I'm joining CU Boulder Colorado in Fall 2021 to build a new research group. This group will build data products using a mix of public and private sector data, and combine this with cutting edge statistics and data science to solve big problems in development for a better and fairer planet. We're looking for new talent to join the group. If you want to come and work with us you can email me at ziamehrabi at gmail dot com.
