AI Tools for Data Science & Stats series
UPCOMING WEBINARS
[07] The Data Science Team of One
AI tools can act as a force multiplier for a solo data scientist. The key is being strategic about where you sit in the workflow and what actually gets multiplied. I'll show you what's worked for me.

PAST WEBINARS
[01] The AI Train Has Not Left the Station. (But Get On Board.)
The hardest part of using AI tools is taking the first step. Let's cut through the noise and get you started.

[02] Claude Code, Cowork, & Chat
If I had to pick just one AI tool, it would be Claude. But Claude is actually 3-in-1 - so let's walk through all of them.

[03] Claude Cowork for Data Scientists
Claude Cowork works way better when tuned to data science. I'll hand over the files, prompts, and architecture - and show you how to use them.

[04] Contextapalooza
Like a T-shirt cannon at a sports event, except everyone gets something useful. My favorite context files + the prompts to get AI to tune each one to your situation.

[05] Claude Code for Data Scientists
Claude Code runs a lot better once it knows your project structure, analysis workflow, and what you're trying to do. I'll show you my setup for building analysis, data science, and machine learning projects from scratch.
Thursday, June 4, 2026 | 2:00-3:00pm EDT | www.linkedin.com/events/7461945134931394561
 
[06] An AI Setup for Data Science Consulting
Clients are asking for AI tools - and some are openly wondering if they still need you. I'll show you one Goldilocks setup where they get the benefit of your expertise and the ability to interrogate their data on demand.
