I lead new research and development for Zillow’s Zestimate and related home valuation products. Prior to Zillow I taught research methods and data science to real estate students at the University of Melbourne and worked as a data scientist developing Automated Valuation Models (AVMs) for Greenfield Advisors, a valuation consulting firm. My doctoral degree is in Urban Planning from the University of Washington and I try to remain active in academic conferences and publications. My primary research and professional aim is to straddle the academic and applied sides of the valuation industry. When not writing R code or staring at plots, I can be found hiking, biking and paddling with my family in the Pacific Northwest.

My full CV is available here.
