Intro time! I'm David. I call myself a "data generalist" because I haven't found a label that fits. I've been a software dev, data scientist, and my real passion is education so now I do Python and data training. I'm currently most interested in skills that data people *actually* need to know.

'data generalist' I like it! Felt very similar to you where I had a hard time summarizing me between SWE—MLE—DS—teacher Cool to see your passion in education! I've been doing this mostly on the side these days— I'd love to talk about edu approach sometime w/ you :D And exciting about your book!

BTW I love talking about educational approaches, happy to connect sometime! We also did a bunch of episodes of our podcast (called Half Stack Data Science) all about data education. Had some great guests on. Apparently you can just approach amazing people and they're just... happy to talk? Who knew?

Just added to my podcast player! I never taught data, so I have no expertise here - but the educational component of data is a fascinating space, so it'll be exciting to hear from practitioners in it.
